    VHF radio does not turn on in our 2018 R23

    Our radio does not turn on. It did 2 weeks ago! I did check the fuse in the fuse box (it's OK) in the lavatory. I also checked to see if the VHF circuit is receiving power. It is. Any thoughts on what to do next? All the other instruments from the fuse box are working also. It does seem...

    I’m sure this has been asked before but I can’t locate it. I have a 2024 RT27 OB LE I got to the boat today and I have no house power. Shore power works for the outlets but nothing else works.
