Help, I lost a leg!

After turning back on Friday due to large ice flows, I was able to go to our camp on Cow by boat from Harilla on Saturday.

Although I had wanted to make it by boat in March for the first time, April 1 ain't bad!
The camp has some electrical problems: every GFI outlet and 240 volt appliance didn't work and the pump didn't develop much pressure. I suspect lightening or power outages blew the cartridge type fuse in the circuit breaker pannel causing the loss of one 120 v leg.
Anyone care to venture an alternative guess or offer an oppinion on this or other electrical problems? Who does island electrical work? I was using Action Electric and he was great but the phone number I have is now disconnected.

Despite no hot h2o, fridge, etc., the peace and quiet were welcome! It's gonna be a great year!
