New Electrical Service Panel options

[SkipperChipper]

Has anyone replaced their aging electrical panel (1990 C30 TR/WK #5987) recently? Better to go with the Catalina Direct (Seaward) version or Custom (Blue Sea) ?
Budget: < $1000

My C36 panel was replaced by the PO with a nice Blue Sea version -- The PO was an Engineer at BS so he use tested many of the high end goodies.

Go to Allied Electric's web site and buy replacement breakers and switches and rebuild your for a couple hundred dollars.

Thanks. That's an option I did not consider but makes sense.

I used stock paneltronics panels ('cause they were a bit cheaper than bluesky). I also moved my shore power over to the galley area to get 110v out of the 12v panel area. It's worked out beautifully.
