I need to replace the navigation light switch which is off/on/on as one of the terminals has pulled out of the plastic moulding, Thanks, Red UK

They are a site sponsor and there advertisement is usually at the top of the page. Also, I've taken just the part numbers of whatever it was I'm looking for and Google the part number. Usually the results appear. I'm sure others with other options will chime in. Cliff 1966 13' Sport with a 1993 40hp Yamaha 2 Smoker

They will have the part number. 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

I would now second the recommend you email Sue Lodel of Twin Cities they are a master Whaler dealer and are known for delivering the finest and most complete service to owners i would tell her all the details of your boat and the recommendation from us for her assistance. 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

Carling makes a lot of switches. My buddy has a 1996 Outrage 17' and he eventually went to a dealer to buy the switch. It was Carling but not sure which Carling. As others said above, try Sue at Twin Cities Marine. She will know.

I have now managed to source one switch courtesy of Mark who works for Yeowards in Salcombe, Devon where my Whaler came from. FP Marine in USA does list the switch but the postage is 3 times the cost of the switch. Thanks for the help, with any luck I will be out there in my Whaler again on Tuesday night, lights not on the blink, Red
