Hi Folks,
We are quite happy for the most part with our 2006 Beneteau 423. The interior is very well appointed, but one disappointment is the door and cabinetry hardware. Most of the solver fittings, handles and cabinet catches (push-through-with-finger-type) are either plastic or chromed metal.
The chrome metal is heavily oxidized and cleaning only leaves large pits. The plastic push through cabinet releases I find painful when under way and my finger catches the hole in the cabinet at the wrong angle.
So a couple of questions. Where to get replacements for the chrome bits, that would be of superior quality? Second question is how does the chrome spring return door handle on the door to the heads come apart?
Thanks,
