I agree Greg with the diode. Without it, the cap is feeding the starter motor and the rest of the boat, not just ST60. The .5 V
drop won't make a difference.

you've installed the ferrite

If it works fine. I was going to suggest also a diode, but thats going to drop things .5 volt
or so. 3000 uF is wimpy but small in physical size but larger uF could be a problem with on switches.
