No electric - Maxum Boat Owners Club

I have a 1997 maxum 2800. I have some electric in the cabin. A/c and one outlet. I don’t have cabin lights or instrument lights. I checked both shore power cords. Help!!!

Check to make sure you have the master battery switch turned on

I checked that, twice. But thanks

Cabin and instrumentation lights are 12VDC and not powered by shore power. Are other 12V items working? If yes then check the fuse for these items.

No. Nothing else working. But thanks

DEAD batteries

If you have a voltmeter see if there is 12V at the fuse panel. No power check 50 amp breaker on the engine, red button. Then check fuse on starter.

I have a 8.1 in my 2800. 4 weeks ago rispedendo was 32. Now only 22. Why? Maybe full take of gas, slime on the bottom of boat? Trim tabs down?
