Evening all, This may be a simple, and possibly stupid question.... The 33-2 has a standard Yanmar control panel, located just above ankle height in the cockpit. The bent-when-I got-it key fits loosely in the worn cylinder located in the bottom right corner of the panel. so, it is quite kick able, (the bend) and the floaty keychain or lanyard is potentially underfoot. In the off position, the key can fall out. I had the panel assembly apart, basically cleaning and bulletproofing the connections and repairing an intermittent ground and some stripped mounting holes, and noticed the cylinder is, unsurprisingly, a simple single-pole switch. Has anyone relocated the key to a more secure location below, and installed in its place in the panel a second in-series switch? Can anyone see a reason why one would not do this?
Thanks, Dave. _______________________________________________ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members. If you like what we do, please help us pay for our costs by donating. All Contributions are greatly appreciated!
