Jeanneau washboard handle

[Stoney01]

Anyone know where to get hold of a replacement handle for a SO DS removable washboard and companion way cover?

I believe they are 90 mm centres

Might help if you could post a picture or tell us what year length etc.

She's a SO 50 DS 2009. Don't have any pics of the handle or overall dimensions. I measured the centres @90 mm with an old ruler, so maybe +/- 1-2 mm

I'm looking for the replacement black plastic handle fitted to the acrylic washboard and sliding hatch, either direct or maybe a stainless alternative.

Standard centres for drawer style handles are 96 mm, I don't want to modify the holes unless forced to.

Watski in Denmark has them

Plastikhåndtag - Håndtag

Since you probably don't read Danish - the top line are the dimensions:

Bredde = width c/cmm = center to center of the holes in mm Farve= color Sort= black



They are made by Roca industries in Sweden. Their UK distributors are

Bainbridge in Southampton and

ASAP supplies in Suffolk

Here's a link to the ROCA site in english

I dont think Bainbridge supply direct to the public, but ASAP do.

If no luck with them, why not try a Jeanneau dealer. Beneteau dealers in the UK are helpful in sourcing parts.

Thanks both for your help

I also found this on eBay, which may upgrade on the original:

5" Plastic Cabinet Cupboard Drawer Closet Toolbox Door Pull Handle Black | eBay

If it was me, I'd look to replace with a good quality 316 Stainless Steel handle.
The plastic one on ebay may not be that resilient to UV exposure.
Cost more, will last as long as the boat.

Fully agree Nigel, if I can locate one with the appropriate centres, I'd go for 316 and replace the top hatch handle at the same time.

However I don't want to elongate the holes to accommodate the "standard" 96 mm.

It's also on the internal side (washboard one), so UV is not such an issue but point is well noted
