I got tired of the cheap white plastic windlass deck switches and upgraded to the Maxwell covered stainless steel ones.
Very heavy duty and makes the foredeck look better.
Simple remove and replace installation.

I put those on my boat and I have given three of my boating friends a pair as well. They look great! They make great boating gifts as well. Price is up as of last month to $99.00 each.

I was looking at these, but was not sure of the screw pattern and if they would fit the Logan/Imtra pedals. I would be interested in a link to buy. Thanks.
 
My friend had black IMTRA covers and it fit his screw pattern as well. Call MMI and they can probably send you the specs.

My original switches were the white plastic IMTRA brand and these new ones match all of the mounting holes etc exactly.

Great! I'm at the boat today. Could you post the site or link so I get the same. I truly appreciate.
 
My 380DA came with a Lofrans windlass. Will the Maxwell switches still work? Thanks

My boat has a Maxwell windlass with the white plastic IMTRA deck switches (now the stainless Maxwell switches).
Suitability is more of function of what deck switch you currently have rather than what windlass you have. In other words a deck switch is a deck switch so if you have the IMTRA brand deck switch, the stainless Maxwell switch is a direct fit.

Even at $99, these are sooooo much nicer than the plastic they replace, all the edges are smooth and rounded and are nicer to bare feet. One other benefit, it forces you to re-bed/seal around these protecting your foredeck.
 
Do you need different switches for up and down like other brands? or same switch just reversed? Hope that makes sense.... or are these just the cover?

I bought the complete switch set but found that my switch bodies were in good shape. So I left the rubber switch surface (the up/down arrow) and everything below it as it was installed stock. I only replaced the covers. A shockingly simple and enjoyable project as far as boat projects tend to go...
