Original 110 panel

[Lola]

Hello all,
Where was the original braker/fuse box for the 110 circuit on the 365? Thanks very much!

It was right behind the sink, to the right of the fixture. It had either 3 or 4 breakers in it.

Phantom, hull 341, has the 110v and 12v panels on the aft bulkhead above the nav desk.  This is original with the Pearson logo on them.

They must have changed it in the newer boats. Our '78 hull 180, and our '76 hull 37, both had the AC panel behind the sink to the right. The DC panel is just inside the companionway on starboard.

Wind Tamer '79 #294 has both together on the starboard aft bulkhead, the location change made in '79?

Hull #311, 1980 - AC panel on starboard side as well.

All these new-fangled boats...

I would have to think of it as an improvement, as long as they are separated in the back. It would be an undesirable event to be working in the DC panel and accidently "discover" some AC.

There is an 80' custom steel ketch here sitting out hurricane season and doing some maintenance. I got a tour yesterday. Their galley is as big as our main salon. The boat has 4 staterooms, the owner's cabin in the stern has a king sized bed with bedside tables on both sides and plenty of walkaround space- No acrobatics required. All winches and furlers (3) are hydraulically powered. They can be operated from either the pilothouse or the outside helm. 6V-71 Detroit for aux power, 10 and 20 kw generators. A 6' steel workbench in the engine room. A beautiful and well thought out boat inside and out. The owners are a local retired couple. They have a portable shop on wheels that sets up like a triple wide mobile home that they bring to the boat when they are here. I have not seen the inside of the shop yet, but I'm sure it is well equipped too.

Ya, but are they happy?

You bet!!!
The owner actually built the boat. He built 4 of them in Pascagoula, Ms. This one was the last built.
