Warren,
Thanks for setting me straight on the grease. What I have is actually
dielectric, I just used the wrong terminology. As for the owners manual,
the one I have has a wiring diagram with wire colors but I see no
reference to fixture type. Will contact Catalina Direct to see if they
can supply the correct data.
I am the 3rd owner, so there may have been paperwork lost along the way,
that I did not receive with the boat.
Thanks,
Doug
