Desperately Seeking Accessories

[Hesper]

I'm hoping some of the veterans of this board might have some ideas on two items.

I've been looking everywhere for a replacement instrument panel for the Yanmar 2GM15, Type B. One too many passengers stepped on the engine stop knob (which was already bent) and broke the panel. Not serious, but I would like to replace it. Anyone have a thought?

Second, I've been keeping the Ship's Log that came with the owner's manual - six-ring loose leaf, 9" x 6" card stock pages - and I'm running out of space. Anyone know if there's a way to get additional pages, even if not identical?

Contact me off-line if you prefer, at two.onoak@verizon.net. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Others will be along with other sources, but this site likely has the stop cable: http://www.marinedieseldirect.com/yanmar/shopping/

I've gotten one from my local Yanmar mechanic. It is just one of the items that he stocks.

Mack Boring is another source for yanmar accessories.

any of the authrised yanmar dealers can get the parts. no big deal.

I had the same thing happen for the same reason. There was enough of the cable end still sticking out to cut some additional threads on and put a different type of knob on that didnt' get bashed up so much. I then had to adjust the cable on the engine for the change in travel.
Just some ideas.

panelec sells replacement engine panels. Australia, but in this modern world I wouldn't hesitate to buy something as long as the price including shipping was right.
