 Re: Switch panels ?
I've got a SeaDog panel in my boat now. It works well and is relatively waterproof, but does not appear to be built to last.
A really nice panel is the BlueSeas Weatherdeck series. They are completely waterproof, backlit, and have guards to keep you from accidentally hitting the switches. I've got one of these on my upgrade list for next season.
Less blingy, but even tougher, would be a set of Cole Hersee push pull switches with the rubberized housings and waterproof inline fuse holders. The original Cole Hersee switches are still on my 1971 Boston Whaler, and the ones on my Lowe are 20 years old.

 Re: Switch panels ?
I made my own for the Go-Devil. Hella compact 4 switch panel, Blue Sea 2 battery selector switch, and two Marinco SeaLink 12 volt plugs. Added a ground terminal block on the back for all my ground wires.
