Yesterday I noticed that the OEM Jimbo outlet, located under the saloon's middle, starboard side window was cracked. After pulling off the wood faceplate all the broken pieces just fell out.
Apparently the 1987 electrical code didn't require the receptacle to be polarized--both upper apertures on the Jimbo ("Before" picture) are the same size.
It's nice that the shape of the outlets hasn't changed in 32 years and the wood faceplate fits the new outlet perfectly. By the way, the teak faceplates were hand made by the Yard.
