Charlie, I like the house bank charge priority or wherever your automatic bilge 
pump or refrigerator is connected, whatever you find most important while you 
are away from the boat. Your post says small solar panel and a 50 amp fuse. 
Those two don’t match! If you over size the fuse the wire becomes the fuse if 
you see where I am going. The fuse needs to be appropriate for the output of 
the solar panel and the wire large enough to carry the current the distance so 
the fuse blows if there is a short rather than the wire lights up like a 
resistance heater. For example a 250 watt solar panel (not small) is fused at 
20 or 25 amps. Check the output of the panel you buy and size the fuse then 
wire for the length of wire. If you have room a bigger panel is better than 
small depending on what you want it to do.
