Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: panel on my 1985 17 Montauk

My Montauk dash panel has a toggle type breaker near the light and accessory switches. This appears to be original as I have had the boat since 1987. The breaker had a clear rubbery water proof cover which has long since cracked and weathered. Does anyone know where to get one of these covers? Thanks.

Doesn't sound original to me.
Any photos?

See this panel.

The top pull switch has been added somewhere in time.
The other 2 switches and fuses appear to be original.

I have an 1985 -17' as well, same set up. The switch is also protected by a clear rubber shield. I have seen these on other boats, I think it's universal.

Hey Guys,
Thanks very much for the responses and the picture. The very bottom right of the panel is what I am looking for. It is a cover that protects the toggle type breaker. I have been looking for one of these covers for quite a while. If any one know where to get this part, please let me know. Again, thanks very much for the replies. What a great site this is.
