I bought a 2019 Montauk 170 and it did not have any electronics. I bought Ray marine 9RV, Ray 53 VHF, and stereo. I noticed that the pre-wired 30Amp wire is not connected and I need to change the 2 breaker model two a 3 breaker model. Does anyone know where I can buy one or who makes them? I have installed all of the electronics, including a new fuse box. I just need the main. Thank you very much for your help. Cliff

Have you reviewed the owners manual? You can install the VNF and GPS etc and use inline fuses. 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

Do you not have this? Phil T attached the following image: [151.27Kb] 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

I took the main breaker cover off and found two breakers installed and ordered one for the electronics, 30 AP like the manual says. All wiring is done, waiting on a breaker. Next time I will take things apart before I bug you guys for answers. Thanks much.
