[C320-list] Fuses on Mk2?

Barb,

Your GPS shows Speed Over Ground (SOG) and your knot meter measures Speed
through the Water...they will rarely match as the knotmeter is taking into
account current, wave action etc...

Stephen, thanks for the tips.  Guess we will go back to the boat and look
more closely.
 
Our knotmeter has never shown the speed that our gps shows.  We are on a
small inland lake.  After unsuccessfully attempting to approach the
knotmeter from down close to the floor, we pulled the innerspring mattress
out and approached it from above.  That worked.  Bob pulled it out, cleaned
it off, but it still did not agree with the gps.  We got the manual out and
recalibrated it to agree closely with the gps.     
 
320 group, thanks for all your tips.
 
BTW, I am envious of those of you that went to the boat show.

On my Mk II the anchor windlass breaker is on the right hand side panel of
the electrical panel rather than the front.  

You should also note that the fuse marked bilge pump was not connected to
anything and the actual fuse is an in line glass type fuse behind the panel
itself and is wired permanently to one of the batteries rather than through
the battery switch.  This wiring change is not reflected in the circuit
diagram in my manual.  

Of further interest re wiring diagram errors, there is no Distribution
Breaker installed for the system although it is shown on the Battery
Schematic.
