Default Was I nuts?

I just put a full fuse panel in our boat which made somebody say that
they now knew I was nuts.

Why?

I don't trust the 24 year old breaker switches. The labels have all
fallen off so I don't know what amperage each is. The boat is all
wired with #10 so the breakers are probably large but the wiring has
been modified and branches off into smaller wire in places I haven't
found yet. I don't want to deal with the time and expense of
rebuilding the main panel right now and it was only a morning's work
to put in a fuse block. I can now select just the level of protection
I want for each circuit. I also have a way now to disable any circuit
without worrying about someone turning it on again. Our switches are
where they can be easily bumped by people going in and out.

Was this nuts?
