2005 420 DA. My 110v outlets in the cabin on the port side are dead. Port side system switch is on and I have good power from shore. The GFI in the cockpit is hot, and the cockpit fridge has power, but the cabin outlets near the panel (over the settee) and in the master stateroom are dead. I was thinking that all of these outlets were switched by the Port Systems breaker. Perhaps I am wrong about that? If I am right, why would half of the outlets on the port side be hot the others dead. It's interesting that everything behind the main panel is hot but everything ahead of it is dead...perhaps there is a splitter in the line that could have come loose? Any and all help appreciated.
 
Most likely there is a GFCI that you haven't found, yet. There's likely at least 3, maybe 4 on your size boat. Common places are the head, galley/galley storage area, etc. But if you go and look in your owner's manual, there should be more specific info about locations. You can download it from SR's site if you don't have it.
 
The GFCI in the master head killed my stbd side outlets. I checked all the outlets and didn’t find moisture, so I changed the GFCI outlet and its been fine since.
