Anybody know the make of the FW factory installed 50A circuit breaker used to protect Helm (House) wiring?

Did you try removing it? It probably has some identifying marks on it. With those in hand, you can probably get one from someplace like Mouser.

Breakers are pretty common. I'm not sure I'd get once from Mouser. I'd prefer sticking with one at least claiming to be for a marine application (which Mouser may indeed carry). I'd pop that panel loose and take a look at it. Pull it out and take it to a local marine store. They ought to be able to set you up with an effective replacement.

Did yours go bad?

Yeah, I didn't mean to imply going with non-marine. I was trying to point to a source for an exact replacement.

I looked in the schematics. It listed almost every manuf, and such for nearly every switch. No mention of the above breaker though.

No, mine didn't go bad. Also, I can't pull it to take a look as it's 200 miles away in storage. I decided I wanted another one when I realised that the 50A fuse I was going to use to protect the wiring for the amplifier I'm going to install is not ignition protected. I was struck with the idea of matching the OEM 50A breaker and panel. I thought if the source was known I could get them cheaper, and perhaps without labeling. I'll likely just order a set from my dealer. I plan to mount the new breaker and panel for the amp over right above the existing breaker panel protecting the helm wiring. A blatant DYI attempt to appear OEM. Just hope it's not too pricey.
