    Trim fuse keeps blowing.

    Fuse blows from something drawing to much current. In this case the most likely item is the pump motor. Might fix it by taking it apart and cleaning, or send it out for rebuild/cleaning. Moisture and electric motors don't work well together

    I/Os in salt water...

    The scrape looks like gel coat, and if that's what it is, then there is no issue. Cost of bottom pain depends on your area, but I would figure around $20 to $100 a linear foot

    Open the valve feeding the toilet, if it is feed by a thru hull, or fill water tank if feed by fresh water system. Most hand pump type use a thru hull. Then start pumping, it will bring the water up and in.
