Unattached Electrical Wires by Fuse Box

New to the forum.  Recently purchased a 1996 16' Scamp to replace our 1994 13' due to a family addition.  The 'new' Scamp had a few easily resolved issues..,I'm enjoying getting to know it inside and out.  I am wondering if anyone can tell me what the unattached wires in this picture might be.  There is no power converter, only a fuse box, I'm thinking perhaps these are to be connected to a converter?

Just a guess

RV's (Scamp) use black as 12 VDC hot and white for ground. Boats use Red for 12 VDC hot and yellow for ground. In older three way friges I have seen the 12v leads used are the red and yellow marine code wiring code. The switch from black / white to red/yellow is usually made at a terminal strip in the back of the frig. Or you may have another marine device that some one kept the marine wiring. Just a WAG who knows what the PO did, it should be easy to trace down the load.
