New gauges & switches for 20ft Seacraft.

[fishstu]

I have a 2001 Lefty Kreh 20 Seacraft and want to replace the gauges and switches.

I am thinking of adding a panel for the gauges rather then install them thru the console. Also to replace the pull out switches with a panel with a bank of toggle switches. all panel, gauges and switches to be of top quality and very water proof.

Has any body do this to a 20 ft Seacraft with pictures. Also any recommendations for gauges and switches and panel will be appreciated.

Thanks

I had a Blue Sea 8 switch panel (part #8271) in my Donzi that I really liked.
Just ordered one for my SeaCraft project, and I'll post pics when I get it in.
Very waterproof and well made!

Thanks for both ideas guys - My existing switches are in a molded panel countersunk low down on the front of the console. the shape would not work as is for the Blue Sea panel. I like the idea of opening up that are and fitting a water proof "glove box" and mounting a blue seas switch panel higher up on the console face.
