    Cockpit refrigerator fuse

    I got a question. Does the line have power at that box? If so fuse is further down line, if not then you need to keep tracking up line.

    Geez, I think what this thread needs is another opinion. Yes Wayne comes after me the boat owner for is $500. It is my responsibility to get my insurance to reimburse it. Someone runs into your car, you sue them not their insurance company.
