We have a 2018 Cutwater 242 and were going out today for the weekend. When getting the boat ready, I saw the accessories were not getting power. The house batteries had a charge at 12.9 v and the engine batteries were also charged (13.5v). The Yamamah fired up, but nothing on the house side. The boat was plugged in all this time and the AC voltage was good even though I noticed it dropped a couple times to 105 v. Checked the outlets in the boat and they were getting normal AC, but the accessories.....dead. No lights, no Garmen, no water pump, bilges, refer (breaker on) etc. Checked fuses, all good as far as I could see. At times there seemed to be a draw on the engine battery but responded when the battery switched was turned off. Any electrical wizards have any suggestions as what to check for next?
 
Hello,

You have a house breaker next to the house battery bank. Chances are that breaker is tripped. If you push the red button in, you'll see a level drop down. To reset the breaker flip the level into the center of the breaker until you hear a click. There is a diagram on page 18 of the owner's manual that will show you the layout. If that doesn't work give me a call and I can troubleshoot with you while you're on the boat.
