Good morning Barry,
Back then it was a short in the compressor…
I had changed the capacitors before but they never trip the main.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Freezer Insulation
Thanks Alan, yes we don't have the dishwasher, a second fridge replaced that space. However the plumbing is still there and I will check the clothes washer plumbing.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Frigoboat Cabin AC
Thank you Alexandre, when you replaced the capacitors, did you find that fixed the problem and didn't trip your mains again.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Since we are talking about seals...
Bill
I read your seal write-up and recognized NIKIMAT's bow thruster photo with an added "red don't do X."
I have found that there is usually more than one good way to perform almost every procedure.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Freezer Insulation
Danny,
Check the weird looking freshwater pipe/hose fitting near the floor behind the clothes washer. It is a filter and hose coupling. I had it start leaking. it is #5 on my list.
