Subject: Re: Cal 33 & 35
Hello, I am new to the Cal boats yahoo group. I oown a 1985 Cal 35 MK
II. In answer to questions it is a Lapworth design. In communicating
with others in another Cal group no longer functioning I was told
that my hull number indicated that my Cal 35 was the last 35 produced
by Cal Boats. I do know it was the last one produced in Florida
before Cal moved everything back to Fall River, Mass. I did not think
they ever produced the 35 again before going out of business, but I
saw a 1988 Cal 35 advertised in the Boat US magazine.
Does anyone know where or if I can find a replacement engine panel
insert, not the engine panel itself, but the white plastic insert
that is atached to the cockpit fiberglass and the engine panel fits
into the insert?

I had a similar problem with my Cal 3-30. I took the old plastic panel to a local car customizer who built a stainless steel replacement panel using the old plastic panel as a pattern. Looks and works great.

Try www.wewireboats.com
He is a sailor who also owns a Cal and makes custom electrical panels for boats. Met him online through Cal group and met him in Annapolis a couple of years ago. Actually, he is going to give me a price on one over the winter as I am also in need of a new panel.
Good Luck

Instrument / control panels should be made of an insulating, not electrically conducting, material, according to ABYC recommendations.

I wondered about that too. My panel is fiberglass and covered by a standard Beckson port
light so it can be seald off from the cockpit.
