Wow Sheet. That was a bad start to a new build. I can understand quickly if the new boat owner is a lil bummed. Can you please keep us up on her...
Any info on this?
Welcome to Yacht Forums. Was there a contract on the boat during the damage? If so, the seller fixes it. Ensure none of the internal frames or...

I understand your point and question. Big boats should not have any issues.... Brother, I can not compare our lil 58 Bertram with this big asp &...

That looks like the same Nason Switches I use all over my 12V71s. Your heavy gauge wire is probably more to reduce voltage drop than high...
Melting #2 wire? What does this wire connect exactly from point to point?
Looking forward to the mfg, after all those quick, senseless and IMO rude comments, having egg on his/their face. People quickly and slowly died...

Sorry my post came out as a smart asp blast, but IMO, usually folk moving to a large boat have already figured most of this stuff out. And during...
Never operated a boat before, uh?
