89 Sea Ray Bowrider 200 Dashboard Parts or Upgrade

[merlin696]

Attached is the dash from my 89 Sea Ray, I am trying to locate a replacement pieces that holds the Switches, Fuses and Ignition, I have not had any luck finding parts anywhere, does anyone know where I may be able to find this piece as mine has split down the middle long ways and the switches are starting to fall out.

Ive also toyed with replacing it with a newer modern panel but because this is an external piece that sits on top I haven't really found anything that would work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ayuh,.... Bein' so old, I doubt yer gonna find a direct replacement....

I'd cut, 'n build my own panel, outa whatever I've got layin' 'round....
Maybe a strip of aluminum sheet, or diamond plate...

Send me a PM and I'll hook you up with a guy that cuts new dash panels for any make of boat.

You send him your old one and he'll cut you a new one.

Why not make one out of wood and cover the front with an overlay ? A local engraving or sign shop should be able to make an overlay for it.
