The handle that switches over the Livewell supply to Washdown has broken and I can not locate a replacement anywhere. Any ideas? This is on a 23 CC 1992 Parker. The handle appears to be a white plastic of some sort with the general "T" shape. Thanks
 
These pics may better explain what handle it is I'm having trouble finding.

I'd make one. Round Delrin of the diameter to fit into the actuator receptacle, filed or machined to fit the engagement needed. Leave long and then put a smaller Delrin rod through a hole drilled in the end.

"Where the maker can't be found ... good ol' Rube Goldberg can be sure to fashion a new one!"

'Rube' being a colloquial term used up here to denote something made by oneself ;) to serve the need.
 
Thank you gentlemen for your suggestions. I have been pleased with the performance of both washdown and livewell so I think I'll go with a Rube approach. I'll send a pic if I come up with anything nifty but considering the punch list I have assembled after reading Dale's reference material such as remove wing nuts from batteries, etc. it may be a while.
