2001 35 lightning shorepower???
 
Just bought a 2001 35 lighting. Has shorepower. Question is where would I find the ac/dc switch or turn it on? Its not under seat, on dash, or above fridge where other switches are for example fridge or stereo power.
Also how much blue fluid and water is the be put in toilet with a macerator and how often should it be emptied?

Thanks

Is it possible that somebody added a shore power connection to only power a battery charger? I know I thought about it a couple times on my last boat...

Are there 110v outlets inside the cabin?

I suppose that is possible as there is a battery charger. No on the 110v

If there are no 110 outlets, and no switch/breaker for it, I bet it just powers the charger.

Is this the boat out of Tacoma WA?

My 02 has factory shorepower. There is a breaker panel in the cabinet above the fridge. From there, you have breakers for AC and DC. My guess is the fridge runs on AC and DC and switches automatically based on the presence of AC. However, my fridge will not run unless the DC breaker (for the fridge is on). Seems strange to me.

I have a factory installed battery charger. (however, I changed it out for a 3 bank and added a house battery)

I also have a 120v outlet in the cabin on it's own breaker.

Like said above I'm guessing the 120 v runs a 2 or 3 bank charger that maintains the 12 v options , look on the rear bulkhead where the charger is and see if the 120 wire goes to a junction box for the charger .
