Dave,   thanks, I found it.  I would not want to go in search of that fuse in an 
emergency.

   I have hull 712 and it took a while to find the third fuse which was
   burned out and prevented the engine from starting.  It is an old
   automotive style 30A fuse located in an inline cylindrical fuse holder
   about 2 inches long located on the port side of the engine.  The fuse
   holder, about the size of my little finger, was spray painted the same
   gray color as the engine and was hard to locate.  It is more easily
   accessible from the aft end of the engine than the front and was close
   to the engine itself.  Good luck.

   Over the Summer, I collected various C320 site e-mails dealing with
   issues I felt
   it was better to understand before they might occur:
   My boat is #680, year 2000:
   On the Yanmar engine fuse discussion, three fuses were identified, I
   located the two on
   the Port side of the engine located just behind the alternator and in
   front of the
   started motor. I have not located the 3rd fuse??? can anyone better
   describe where it is,
   what cable it is in and is it a two prong fuse (newer style) or the
   older cylinder looking type??
   2. One discussion also mentioned fuses in the battery cable lines that
   were pushed up under the shelf
   overhang in the main cabin settee. I had no luck in locating these
   either.
   If in the lines.... approx. how far from battery terminal??
   3. So I do not have to rip out the Starboard Aft locker to see the fuel
   tank:
   what material is the fuel tank made of ???...... one discussion of a
   failed tank
   indicated aluminum.
   Thanks,
