Hey one other thing - if any of you purists want the old panel, its for sail. You could then rewire things to have two Catalina yachts panels...

I'm glad this subject is here right now. I couldn't find any information on my 1980 SK as to which amp fuses to use on my panel. I replaced my anchor light fuse holder yesterday (due to me stupidly fooling around and breaking it!) and the original owners manual I have doesn't tell you which amp fuses to use. Is 15 amp correct for the anchor light fuse? Seems kinda big for just one little light...?

All are 15 amp circuits

1. Running Lights – Cockpit light, red/green bow, stern light, cockpit light (has switch inside sail locker) compass backlight, Speedo Backlight) All panel Backlighting (meters and switches)
2. Steaming Light - same
3. Anchor Light - same
4. Foredeck Light - same
5. Main Cabin Lights
6. SPARE - First Switch on Right Side
7. Water Pressure – Empty now, plan on installing water pump later this summer
8. Bilge Pump - Aft bilge pump (installed by prior owner in crappy location)
9. Macerator Pump – Will be Bilge pump two when the label comes, Bilge pump – properly located
10. Stereo – Radio and Cigarette lighter; we us the cig light to run a portable CD player or Sattelite XM radio
11. VHF – Same
12. Sailing Instruments – currently the Depth Sounder, but soon wind meter and new Knotmeter
13. Fans – Same

Hey Music Man - The fuse should relate to the AMP Draw of your piece of equipment, or the combined draw of all the items on the circuit plus a little bit. I am quite sure there is an exact science to it's selection, and Leon or another wire head might be able to give those numbers to you.

If the anchor light is the only thing on that switch - 5 amps should do it for a regular bulb.
