Quick question, I have a 1987 Skeeter Starfire 175, but this is for any boat, Does your ignition key fit your storage compartments?
Thanks
Joe

Re: Ignition Key

ignition and hatch locks are from different manufacturers, so different keys.

Re: Ignition Key

Boat manufacturers and engine manufacturers don't care about each others keys. You will find however, that boat "X", boat "Y" and boat "Z" may have the same key. I just bought locking gas caps for two of my vehicles. The key for one of them opens a "T" handle lock for a garage door, and the other works in the liquor cabinet lock on my bar. Does that give me a comfortable feeling?????

Re: Ignition Key

Locks do two things:
- They keep honest people out
- They allow you to honestly tell the insurance company that "it" was locked.
