For boat owners

Switch panels and dashboards for motor yachts

For motor yachts that deserve a helm matching the interior: made-to-measure switch panels and dashboards, matched to wood, high gloss and your electronics. 12 V or 24 V, laser engraved, backlit and fully wired.

A helm that suits the yacht

On a motor yacht, owners spend a lot of time at the helm. Chartplotter, engine instruments, bow thruster, lighting and pumps all come together here. A made-to-measure switch panel brings this into a calm, logical order – and looks as refined as the rest of the yacht.

We choose material and colour to match the interior: gloss or matt acrylic, laminate, anodised aluminium or 316 stainless steel. The backlighting is matched to the LED rings of the buttons.

Refit and new build

Refit. For a refit we draw the new panel to the outline of the old one so it fits the existing opening. New electronics get clean cut-outs instead of holes sawn afterwards.

New build. For shipyards we produce per model. The approved design is stored so every yacht in the series gets the same panel.
