Always trying to help

But it’s only .110 boat bucks. See I already helped you save almost a whole boat buck!

Hah...I was hoping I'd be the first to jump in here with the proper conversion rate for boat bucks

I ordered them from Hamilton. They said they were backordered. Went ahead and ordered them. Hopefully they come quickly.

Ordered yesterday online. It said nothing about back ordered. I checked bank statement, they did debit the account. We shall see. Anxiously awaiting.

i did go on yesterday und under status it said back ordered. gonna wait and see when they stocked back up. keep me posted

 

[Jeff Delbuono]

Unreal. They must be a member of this site. Just double checked and now the price is $73.29 each up from $55 each. And they still say backordered under quantity available.

Might as well get the whole switch for that price

I ordered from Hamilton Marine - while it said backordered. They just arrived today. Excited to install.

Dang good find. The entire switch for what Hamilton wants for just the cover.

 

[skolbe]

Yes I only paid $55 each plus $.50 cents shipping.

$156 for two with free shipping I ordered the entire switch assembly not just the covers.

You can just install the covers if your current switches are good and save switches for the future. Maxwell said the switches last for decades in most situations.

True, or replace with new now and keep a working old one on board as a spare for the less likely event of a failure in a critical situation. Nice way to spend an hour with a beer.

Fastest bling improvement for the buck! I just installed mine this morning. Before and After. My plastic ones were way worse than I thought. Gave me a chance to orient the arrow on the down switch too. Both used to point aft which was quite confusing at times.

Mike, actually took your advice and just installed the covers for now. Didn’t feel like messing with bedding the entire switch and caulking looks good no evidence of leaking. More stuff in the spares box!
Cheers

Looks great. Now for a shiny new polished SS anchor roller and anchor to match your switch covers.

Not likely, those boat bucks stay in the ten footitis fund!!

Mine arrive today! Before I get too deep in to the project, some advice please. I ordered the whole switch and cover. To install just the cover, is it as simple as removing the six screws and replacing the cover? Seems way to easy.....
