An indication of how basically stupid you are. I hope the boat is

You'll have to forgive jps. He knows everything there is to know, and is
quite vexed by those of us who don't. I take the easy way out, and have him
killfiled.

...a position taken by most of the people left posting in this group.
The problem is, everything they "know" is just their opinion and they
have no "knowledge" concerning anything but winger politics.

On an aluminum boat run separate line for ground. Run a hot and ground to a
distribution panel. Then tap off the panel, I use a fuse panel, for the
loads. Running the ground as the boat hull, causes electrolysis and holes.
