The title may be a clue.

I assume the staff at your marina are on holiday?

Are you a member of River Canal Rescue? If so, phone them on 01785 785680. Their job is to get you going again, so they won't do any work on leisure fittings such as lights or fridge, but they should renew things like the wiring from the ignition to the starter motor, and the starter motor itself it it has been damaged. If you aren't yet a member, I think (but am not sure) that you can join immediately, though there may be a premium charge if you do.

Burton Waters website indicates the marina offices are closed until 2nd January.

If its only the engine loom that has gone up, disconnect your starter battery ( try first just turning it off at the isolator for that battery if you have two isolators )

Gingerly reconnect your cabin battery watching carefully. You should be able to get your supplies back to your lights etc. Don't run the batteries down too far though.

 

Is this a beta engine by any chance? iff so the loom unplugs both at the engine end and the panel end.

 

Long shot..................I was told that the RAC will attend and charge their fleet turnout rate but will promise to get you underway.

 RCR will not fix anything but your propulsion equipment but that should include the engine wiring/loom.
