My 79 challenger fish & ski has an old style kill switch... maybe added later. The lanyard has a baby bottle nipple looking thing on the end that holds the button IN (opposed to new switches that hold button out) i have some pics but dont know how to use em here lol but i would email to anyone who is interested . I have checked most of the local marine dealears here but no one has one, but they will sell me a new switch for 30 bucks. Does anyone here know where i could order 1 or know who made this type kill switch? Thanks in advance.. i love this place :)
