Maybe... but in here every bit of information is used as a weapon.

You can thank your pal in MD for that state of affairs. I think a
lot
of us would appreciate knowing which component or connection was
failing.

It was my fault I guess. I used a different wiring scheme than Don
was used to.

I suppose I should have given him a wiring diagram for the fuse block
too. OH well. :)


Don't worry about that...I find it too hard to reach or see... what
with my
'progressive lens' glasses. ;-)


That was another issue - I placed that fuse panel to be out of the way
and out of the weather. Never even thought about trying to change a
fuse easily.

Then again, it's pretty accessible from outside the boat - which would
be terribly inconvenient in the middle of the lake now that I think
about it. :)


Just got back in from outside...temp up in the 80's F again today.
Not used to that in the sun.
Only red tape I had here is the TUCK type used to seal plastic vapor
barrier on your outer walls.
I wrapped a small 1.5" wide strip around the white wire and used a
permanent red marker to draw a couple '+' signs.
If I miss that next year, I'm in trouble. ;-)

Just remember black=negative in DC.
