Does anyone know where to buy replacement switches for the power panel. We have a 1996 Santego 380.
Thanks Jim

I suspect you are referring to the circuit breakers rather than switches. You need to find the exact model, which is usually printed on the side of the breaker. it will determine what capacity, what type terminals and what color and type of handle.

Blue Seas makes some, as well as Carling.

If you posts some pictures, somebody could likely narrow it down some.

Your marina chandlery, west marine and marine supply stores, Defender etc.
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.

If you know the brand and switch/breaker capacity, Amazon most likely has it. Usually much less than the marine stores. ;-) An example https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Sea-Systems-Circuit-Breaker/dp/B000K2K72O/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2JLBTN68Z27QG&keywords=bluesea%2B10a%2Bbreaker&qid=1696368965&sprefix=bluesea%2B10a%2Bbreaker%2Caps%2C70&sr=8-4&th=1

Thanks for the Help, Found what I needed on Amazon (Blue-Sea) half the price of West Marine. Problem was previous owner had the Marina install a new water pump with a higher amperage draw. New switch/breaker solved the issue, system is happy.
