thanks everyone, I finally found that its a Sea Dog panel and I've ordered a new one for @ $50. Then I can use the old one for spare parts if need be.
I also hate the design of the holders but am taking the easy way out and replacing like with like. The individual fuse holders are available for @ $2 plus $8 shipping.
Again, Thank you for all of your help :D

I've just ordered this panel as well, and also another Seadog panel with 6 switches. I'm replacing a broken 6 switch panel that is currently mounted just to the right of keel winch handle. Directly behind is the area with the tube and cable...the tube i assume is to limit water splashing up and in???? Does enough water get in this area that it's not a good place for the panel?? By the way, my boat's a 1977 25 footer. Where do you guys with the same boat mount your panel? Anyone have it where i do? Another question: I got a spool of 18/2 wire, i know this is enough for all my nav lights, but is 18 gage gonna be enough for other stuff as well...like the radio, knot & depth, vhf, etc. ?? Thanks in advance, Joe.
