Resources

A number of products and tools are mentioned throughout the Powerboater’s Guide to Electrical Systems. In most cases your local marine store or chandlery has or can get you the equipment we’ve discussed. Here are some other useful resources:

Blue Sea Systems

A great resource for parts as well as technical advice. Call 1-800-222-7617 for customer service, or 360738-8230 for the technical support line; or go to www.bluesea.com.

NAPA Auto Parts Stores

NAPA has an excellent line of marine parts and mechanic’s tools. You can find the stores nearest you at www.napaonline.com. Snap-On

In my view, Snap-On produces the finest tools for the mechanic available anywhere in the world. If you are looking for the best, check out www.snapon.com. Like MAC, Snap-On distributes through local mobile vendors, but the distribution network is worldwide.
