Default Ignition Key Switch?

Guys, my 1996 Shabah ignition/key switch took a dump on me yesterday. Can I just replace it w/ a standard 3 way key switch? Anything special about it?

    Yea you should be able to. I replaced mine with a regular switch then switched to an electronic keypad and didnt have any issues at all

    Yep, any standard marine grade ignition switch will work. Had the same issue on my Z250 and swapped with a "SeaSense" ignition switch with no problems whatsoever.
