[Rhodes22-list] Actual Rhodes Question - electrical systems

[brad haslett]

Wally,

This is an actual Rhodes answer.  Get a copy of
"Boatowners Illustrated Handbook of Wiring" by Charlie
Wing (BoatUS, West Marine, Amazon, $21).  It is the
current (no pun) bible on boat electrical systems. 
I'd read it for you and answer any question but I
can't type that fast.
