Already fused at the battery thanks to previous messages (Thanks Joe!). Found these nice fuse holders at Defender that go on the battery post (http://www.defender.com/product3.jsp?path=-1|328|2290021|2290030&id=333199) that made that part easy. I had hoped to go the way David Blair suggested but crawling down around the water heater I could not see the path. I guess I am going to have to fold my 6’3” body in a bit more and try to find that route as that would certainly be the easiest. I saw the wires coming up that way in the engine compartment near the center line and hoped it would be easy to get to them at the stern. I guess it is impossible to design a boat with easy access to engine, electricals, plumbing etc. Thanks- Dave
