    Hi,
    I picked this up, think it is a control panel for a motor boat. I've been searching using control panel but not finding anything like it so maybe control panel isn't the correct term. Does anyone know the company symbol where the key fits in? This is 12 1/2" x 8".
    Any thoughts or ideas welcome.

    Evinrude ignition switch / dash / ammeter

    Not actually one unit - just parts put together that way

    Thanks very much Terry. I thought it would be neat display piece, hoping someone else does too!

    It's from a more innocent age, maybe 1950s.

    Nowadays you have a bettery isolater switch hidden somewhere else, and the whole thing comes as a unit, with added oomph from other instruments, none of which you really need if you know what you are doing.

    Nowadays you don't take a screw turn out without twin diesel engines and enough electronics to reach the moon in an afternoon.
