HEre is one way to HELP in the this scenario. Install a Siren alarm. It has a bunch of inputs for detecting bilge pump activiity, battery volatge, incoming AC power etc and will alert your iphone in case of a problem. http://sirenmarine.com/
...On my boat, large sections of that hose are not visible. I'd be interested to understand where that hose failed. It seems cutting the AC pump when bilge float is tripped or when AC converter breaker is tripped or when battery voltage drops too low would be prudent.
The only thing I leave running is the fridge, every thing else is off, main battery switches are off. Us folks farther north can get away with that and don't have the humidity/heat problems to deal with like others who have to leave their AC units on all the time.I was always concerned that something could run when docked and I was not there. I always turned off all my circuits (except battery charger) when I left my boat for the day.
