I have a 1978 Marinette Sedan Brige and the silver toglle circuit breaker for the cabin AC will not hold. Wherre can I find replacement breakers?
Any ides of amperage. Thinking 20 amp max, since both berth and cabin AC's are on same side of breaker panel.
Are they difficult to replace? I have never had the panel out.

Could it be that the breaker is trying to tell U something. Not knowing how old you’re A/C’s are
with the heat wave we’ve been having maybe the A/C’s motors being of age could be drawing to much amperage. Another thing to remember is that most of the AC wiring is of #14 gauge aboard our BigM I wouldn’t go over 20 amp breakers without rewiring with at least #12 gauge wire, don’t forget AWG is the wire to use on boats to avoid corrosion at connections etc. BTW they used regular romex wire when they built these puppies.

 You'll have bad times, but they'll just wake you up to the good times you weren't paying attention to

Some people try to turn back their odometers.Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way.I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

You're over-analyzing! The breakers get old and tired with all that amperage running off an "extension cord".
