    Circuit breakers - can they go bad?

    I was out yesterday and noticed after a bit that the breakers (no fuses) had popped for the livewell and the bilge. I have seen the livewell pop before and simply reset it. This time however I can't reset either of them. I had fired up the livewell earlier to keep a fish. I start it up in...
