    Panel
    On a carver 355 98, in researching the Carver guide book, they itemize a second 12 vt electrical panel separate from the one in the dinette.
    It is called the Bridge 12 vt. DC panel

    Where is this panel. I did not see it inside the bridge console when removing the forward facing bridge seats and panel covers. I THOUGHT I had looked everywhere
    Shouldn't this panel be in an easy to reach location

    The book does not state where it is located.
    Thanks

    It can mean the panel mounted right in view on the dash where you steer from if it has fuses or those push button ETA breakers.

    On my 2003 356, it was under the forward folding bench seat (just in front of the upper helm), just slightly
    to starboard of center. It had 2 sliding, plexiglass panels. You have to be a bit of a contortionist to get a look at it.
    I did it mostly by feel.

    That's a wonderful place and way to mount a breaker panel.

    On my 95 they are located under one of the steps leading up to aft deck.
