My "new" paint job is 8 years old and some areas are no longer shiny due to
strap tension on the winter cover, so I was wondering if a simply wax type
finish or a touch up paint job is in order. Saw some earlier posts, but wanted

Someone at our club has 3 working early to mid 2000's era B instruments

Thanks for all those good notes. I now understand it really isn't necessary if
the plywood provides enough support for the 4 screws holding the ears of the

I have a WS45 Wind Indicator which for the first few years (2004-2006) worked
fine, then the speed stopped showing. Later, I tried to connect directly to
the instrument and at that time thought it worked fine so when I had the boat
on the hard, I sent it to the distributor who said it works
I am rewiring and think that all instrument lights should go off one breaker
and the instruments off another and that would include the compass light.
Thoughts?
