Blown Boat Circuit Breaker?

My boat's 30amp circuit breaker opens when I first plug it into shore power. I may have to reset the breaker a few times and then it works even with a 15 amp heater load. What should I look for?

If youre having problems with the circuit breaker, it should be checked out. The water is especially hard on the boats electrical system. That being said, here is an article about the way to keep your system safe. www.boatingmag.com/boat-electrical-system-safety-tips...

It sounds like time to bring in an electrician who specializes in boats. Perhaps your dock manager or fellow boaters have a name of someone who is trustworthy! Wishing you an easy solution!!
