[C320-list] Electric panel: Cabin lights triggering circuit breaker

I was under the impression that on ALL Catalinas the cabin light breaker is
always top left.  It looks like an additional circuit has been added to one
of the AUX locations.

Greetings,

You could fit my knowledge of electrical matters in a thimble. I'm hoping
this is a simple matter that one of you smarter-than-me folks will
recognize.

On my '95 C320 the circuit breaker flips immediately when I flip the switch
for the main cabin lights on the panel (the ones that run around the cabin
over the shelves). This turns off the fridge, too, as they seem to be on the
same circuit. See this photo: http://kevjot.com/boat/c320_panel.jpg

Any thoughts on what I need to do? 

Thanks in advance.
