replace round knot meter

[bill h.]

I would like to replace the knot meter on my 27 O-Day, she was built in 76. I would like a round one with numbers and a dial, not a square one with a digital display. the one i am replacing is the original,i think, it says SR Mariner,has a black background and white numbers and needle. it would be nice if i could find a unit that would fit in the existing holes in buldkhead and thru hull. i know the digital madels are more accurate but they remind me of the vcr that i can't program.

Call SR Marine

1-800-654-6360, ext. 109 and ask for Corry. If anyone can help you find what your looking for, he's the guy. If they don't have a replacement in stock, he might be able to rebuild the one you have. Luck!

Moor Electronics...maybe original???

Hi, I found the manufacturer of what I understood to be my original knot meter on my 1980 O'Day 30, Moor Electronics... They still make a nice, simple, round, analog meter which can be bought with or without the "log" (odometer). Here's their site.. If you contact them, you can probably sort out whether the diameter is right for you...  http://www.moorelectronics.com/Fair Winds, Jim
