Greeting all,
One of my winter projects is to replace the black panel at the top of my nav station. The current panel was the home to my old B&G speed, depth, and wind computers. Their removal last spring left several gaping holes. I'd like to start with a fresh panel and install a volt meter and eventually some other items. The panel is 1/8" thick with a matte black finish. It appears to be some sort of fiberboard product. I have been looking at plastic panel materials at McMaster-Carr, but I'm not really sure which kind to get. Plastic sheeting comes in so many different materials. I'm sure someone here has replaced theirs at some point. This is the same type of material used for the circuit breaker panel. What works and looks like the original stuff? The first instrument to go into the new panel will be a volt meter. My B&G instruments had one built-in, but they're gone now. It seems there are only two options for digital volt meters; the high dollar Blue Seas meters (pricey) and the cheap Chinese meters that run $15-25. I'm looking to install a single meter with a toggle switch to test both batteries separately. Does anyone have a source for a reasonably priced digital volt meter? Right now I'm looking at something like this: http://www.sears.com/niceeshop-tm-mini-2-wire-dc-4.5-30v/p-SPM7958467523 Thanks, Jake Jake Brodersen C&C 35 Mk-III "Midnight Mistress" Hampton VA
