Yep. I used to work for a power and light company here in NJ. Was surrounded by guys that daily work with 34,000 volt lines. Hot sticking it all the way. Completely clueless if you asked them a question about 12V DC.
I'm guessing that the PO of the boat was trying to wire the boat like a home distribution box. One main breaker (fuse) feeding the individual breakers (fuses) that go out to the different receptacles (items being powered). Just a guess, but seems logical given Wellcraftv20step's description of how it was wired.

Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
