Engine control panel badly needs replacement

Is the GRP moulding this engine panel is mounted in a standard part that can be bought, or was it a moulding from Swan?

 

Thanks in advance for all the answers I'm getting to my numerous questions! Much appreciated.

Dear Sweyn,

it's been custom made in Nautor's Swan, but the panel is not original.

Thanks Matteo, I thought it probably was. The engine panel is a Beta one to go with the Beta 38 she now has. I guess I'll have to tidy it up then.

Hi Sweyn

At Kairos, the engine control panel is in the coaming on starboard with a similar GRP/Gelcoat inset. The Gelcoat was badly cracked (hairline only, not structural) around the holes for the various buttons etc - we had it refurbished and it looks as new now.

Yours will look great after it had a little tlc, I am sure.

Fair winds,

Stefan
