Just bought a C25 with a busted knotmeter (the guage itself is broken, indicator arrow off - though the light still works, lol). Though I'm thinking of using/updating my GPS, if I could find a used knotmeter would be nice if I could replace it, even for looks sake. Any ideas?

The old, huge Signet? For cosmetics sake, it's easy to make a teak or mahogany pad to cover the hole or mount a more modern unit in the same 'space'.

I have seen speakers put in those holes.

A few years ago, I sent my broken Signet digital display back to the manufacturer ([url="http://www.signetmarine.com/"]Signet[/url]) and they said that it would make more sense to replace the unit rather than repairing it due to its age and cost of repair. They offered me a credit on a new unit, but I opted to change over to a Standard Horizon product to match my depth sounder.

Try contacting Signet and tell them what is wrong with your [url="http://www.signetmarine.com/products/instruments/SL11/SL11.html"]SL11[/url]. Maybe they can offer advice on whether to repair or replace.

Good Luck.
