Yesterday as I was leaving the boat I turned on shore power switch at the dock box and noticed green light on shore power breaker switch was not on. All electrical on boat otherwise (from batteries) is working fine. Everything ok at box on the dock. Couple days ago it was fine. No changes made. Any guesses?

I'm guessing the breaker popped, either at the box or at a junction further down. I've seen this happen quite a bit, mostly at less sheltered marinas where things can more easily get wet, due to wind and waves. When I find something like this I make a point of stopping off at the office to let them know before I leave the marina, that way the problem is resolved before my next visit.

You both hit it on the nail. I went to the boat last nite, put on my reading glasses(to read small off/on print) and flashlight. Sure enough the breaker on the ac main/distribution panel on the boat was on the off position It must have popped off or one of my guests inadventently did it when I told them to turn the battery switch to the off position. Thanks guys. I love simple fixes.
