Ok, guys, it's the rookie boat owner. I'm replacing the bottom flotation

wiring while it's all apart. There are no fuse.

I agree with everything that has been said. I would advise you to put
the fuses or breakers as close to the battery as possible. Preferably
right at the battery.


Why is this Jack? Is it a matter of convenience, or is there another
electrical reason for proximity to the battery?

Just curious...since I know nothing about wiring either.
