Dash panel and Dials

[Admiral P. Brain]

Looking for a new dash panel and dials for the Tomahawk.

After previous comments and first hand realisation on what a rip off gaffrig dials are!!
I wonder what the cheap alternatives would be to replace the old dials for the twin Volvo KAD42's.

The dash needs replacing and was wondering if anyone knew of a good source of material, maybe carbon fibre etc?

Sorry to hear you had trouble with Gaffrig by Livorsi gauges. They are the most widely used gauge in high doller offshore boats over here. Standard equipment on Cigarette, Outerlimits, Fountain, Pantera, Active Thunder, Nortech, etc.

I assume you meant your liquid filled speedometer leaked? The GPS units are dry.

The leaking problem is easily solved but it certainly would have been better to have never happened.

The bezels that Livorsi sells are not manufactured by them. They do however warranty anything they sell. They are held in high regard for their customer service. I've sold over $200,000 worth of their gauges this year without a single return.

If anyone has a problem with any Livorsi product, shoot me an email and I'd be happy to get it taken care of for you.

yes I mean the liquid filled speedo....
I spoke to Livorsi and yes they were very helpful.
Just difficult for returns as they are on other side of pond etc...

Just cant justify the outlay for the new boat and Jon told me that apart from the speedo there just rebadged, price inflated, standard dials...

The boat is Mike Livorsi's Spectre cat named "Gauge This".
