Glad you got on the water. We all makes mistakes, it's part of life. If a 30A goes again, have a look into that pump.

The main thing is you kept at it all day and launched.

I bought 20a fuses and the original that was bad was a 30a, I don’t know why I did that. I bought some 30’s and it worked fine. I still think there might a problem but it’s working now.

Glad the 30A fuse got you back out to the water today due to the original fuse amperage rating is supposed to be an 20A so it would seem at this point something somewhere may be working a bit harder than designed while under 12v power usage.

The following section of a merc service manual for the trim pump may help you out some too if desired,

That’s the worst advice I’ve ever heard.
