I have a Minn Kota 55 hand operated troll motor. The DPDT rocker switch
that does the forward/reverse broke into pieces. It is rectangular. Has
anyone changed one of these, and do you think I can find one at NAPA, or do
I have to purchase the gold plated expen$ive one from MK?

Yep, this is the guy that likes little boys because he doesn't know how to
talk to a girl.

You should be registered.

Let me explain how your computer works. Open a browser. You know one of
the programs that you look at the naked pictures on. Then find Google and
look up switches and see who sells them.

Maybe you can find one online, or talk to a boat supply store and see
if they have an aftermarket one, or maybe know how to adapt one from
another make. Otherwise you'll probably have to go back to MK .

Let me explain how Usenet works... You take a question to a group that is
familiar with the topic and ask it. Folks who have had real world experience
give you their opinion and findings, instead of bought and paid for Google ad
pages. If you are lucky you don't have some google head cut and pasting those
ads for you... plonk

Look on the side of the sw case and see if there are numbers or a name like
Cherry. Napa does carry some, or look at Digi-key or McMasters Car for one
with the same dimensions.

There is no experience that amounts to a hill of beans on your part. We
are not here to fix your motorbike even though the experiance _is_ here
that is vastly higher than you. They could give a damn less about living
your life through your children an their adventures. So go to hell.

I see your ploink and raise you two kicks in the ass for your stupidity.

Snotty Scotty

Since I was notified that announcing who I ***** was bad form, I have sworn
not to announce who I *****, I shall just say, what he said. ;-)

According to some, we have a huge space we dedicate to political rants, and
yet not a little space for a real boat question. Interesting.

TY, Scotty.

Steve B, not SteveB. It seems I now have a shadow/stalker

Been weathered in, and recovering, so haven't been out, really. Just asking
in case another person had the same experience. I believe I can find a
replacement/substitute.
