So, it's a short wire, with one end hanging loose and the other end going to the breaker labeled "outlets"?
Since your outlets work, I assume that this wire is paralleled with the circuit feeding the outlets, correct?
My guess would be that someone started a project and never finished, or had something hooked there they didn't want to go with the boat when sold.

What color is the wire? That will tell you what it is used for?

Green = Ground
Black = Hot
White = Neutral

When you mentioned wire, I thought of a "wire" not a corded plug.
