  If the electrical system on your Kingfisher Boat is dead, there could be several reasons. First, check if the battery switch is turned off and turn the main switch on. If that's not the issue, the main fuse may be blown, in which case you should replace it. Another possibility is a discharged battery. If the battery is discharged, inspect the electrical system for overload or a short circuit, and then charge or replace the battery.
