Hi Everyone!
I've been sailing for a few years now and owned my E29 for a year and a half, so I'm a newbie and learning as I go.
I've been on the forum for a while, but have really started diving into boat projects these past few months.
I'm wondering how easy it is to replace the main toggle circuit breaker. Last month when reconnecting shore power it wasn't working and then my fellow sail person was gently zapped (fortunately it was gentle). We realized there was quite a bit of moisture around the panel. I've since had the boat disconnected from power out of sheer terror but am now worried about the humidity. When I've been back to check on the boat, the moisture seems to be gone from that area, which doesn't make sense to me. (unless the humidifier really doesn't do it's job?) I did unscrew the panel and this is what I discovered. Looks like some corrosion is going on and that things have definitely been wet. I'm hoping to fix all this, but wanted to reach out because I know sailors have lots of advice/opinions and love to give it.
