Dead generator

Hi,
We are out cruising at the moment and the generator has packed it in. Very serious as it means no COFFEE!!!
Itas a westebeke 8btd. I ran it this afternoon no problems - shortly after I shut it down I needed to fire iit up again - pressed the preheat then the start -nothing - no instrument lights, no movement of the instruments, no clicking from the starter motor - totally dead. Seems to me like a fuse but can't find one.
Any suggestions? Its home tomorrow if I cannot figure this out.

Please help
