[26 command / 280] Request: picture of your panel

Postby Phrancus » November 3rd, 2020, 2:03 am

I'd like to know what the switch (fuses) panel originally looked like in my 1992 26 Command bridge / 280 Sedan bridge

Mine has a creative mess and as I'll have to rebuild the thing anyway, perhaps I can do that in style.

edit: I was initially looking for the fuse/switch panel but am also interesed in the 'dashboard' (dials around the wheel) edit II: 'helmpanel' as I found some remnants of a previous engine setup.

Thanks in advance

Not sure if you mean the power panels or the helm panels.

Here's a couple I snapped off youtube. I've used that for a lot of ideas on other boats. When searching for your boat, you can also add "sedan bridge" as folks might not be as familiar with the term "command bridge". There are several videos on the 26 and 28.

Thanks for the pics and the tips. Looks like the DC panel I have is quite original after all. If that was made for 120V, it might be the reason why it shows very little voltage/amperes on 220V. Perhaps something blew (shunt is it?)

The left part I see a radio fitted where in mine there is a DIN space in the board onto which the rocker/fuse panels are mounted. Well, were supposed to be, didn't fit quite right so someone made it half-fit...
