The yard mechanic told me that in his experience these were caused by bad
grounds most of the time. Sure enough, when I cleaned the ground connections

Everyone:
Thanks for the input. I replaced the 30 amp fuse like i was instructed and it
started up right away. Brad brings up a good point. Could it be heat related.
I guess I should have tried starting it before replacing t

Hello:
I have a 1985 C&C 33-2 with a Yanmar, Diesel 2GM20F engine. I was sailing last

Yes, in the wiring loom facing the front of the engine the harness will
have an inline fuse. it runs from the Starter to the start switch.
