Don't have anything like that on my boat, cd28 #346 1983. Can you remove the panel or get behind the panel, from the lazerette? It could be something added by previous owner?

John, thanks for the reply. i'll try your idea the next time i go to the boat - probably next week-end. i'll let you know what i find. by the way another board watcher (larry / CD30 -i think) says he has similar knobs on his ac panel. thanks again.

Hi Mac,
I checked the AC box on my CD28 (1983), here is what I found.

I have a teak box (10"w x 10"h x 4"deep) mounted on the aft galley bulkhead, just to starboard. On the teak box is a metal plate (8"w x 5"h). On top of the plate says 'CAPE DORY YACHTS'. Below that to the left is a switch labeled 'AC MAIN 120V 30A'. Below that are two indicator lights side by side; one red (left) 'PILOT', the other orange 'POLARITY REVERSED'. On the right side of the panel are 3 switches mounted one over the next. The first two are labeled 'BATT CHRG' & 'OUTLETS', the third is vacant/not labeled.

This looks like orginial CD installation.

One of my projects was to pull out all of the old wire, re-wired all of the AC, installed another outlet/box, and put a GFI in the lead outlet/box.

Hope this helps, good luck.

John
