....but after owning my boat for a couple weeks, just realized it does not have a fuse box. Everything is wired with an inline fuse which seems odd. Coming from someone who has built a couple hotrods (tbuckets) and a strong automotive background, never thought the boat wouldnt have one.
I let BPS install the new Garmin because it was free, but they used a cheap 3A inline which Im sure will be "ok" but after relocating the HB 386 up front, I found no fuse panel to tie into. I piggiebacked off the Garmin but got me to thinking. I want to add things like radio, box and deck lights, etc and only feel that a fuse box is a must. Any thoughts on more experienced boat owners would be appreciated as this is my first "real" boat.
