Hi everyone!
As some of you already know, I purchased a used 1997 Monarck Pro 160 Bass Boat with a 40 hp Mariner about a month ago. I looked undr the console where the steering wheel is located and found an old fuse box. I will try and post a pic when I get a chance but this thig looks scary. I am kinna worried about having electrical problems out on the water. I am also considering adding some new electrical equipment such as a stereo and fishfinder and some lights so I am considering on purchasing a new fuse box. I was looking at the Blue Sea 5025 Blade Fuse box and I wanted to know if this company makes quality products? How difficult are they to install? Also, should I just scrap all of the wiring in the boat and purchase new wires since I am replacing the fuse box or should the old wiring be adequate? I know I am goning to have to get some help because I know nothing about electrical wiring but I wanted to check with you guys first. Thanks everyone!
