Some changes, mostly electrical. Set up fuses for water heater and pump motor - with direct feeds and values that reflect their true draw. Some interesting discoveries along the way, such as direct B+ in this location to the original fridge on a #8 wire - with a 30 Amp fuse. I backed that down as well (2way fridge now, not 3way)
Drew the schematic as I went, so when I've forgotten I can reference it.
Replaced dead lights with LEDs
No battery connection through the kill switch at this time

One issue I had was a severed ground, which was why the command center didn't function as it should.I tapped the ground for the fridge for the repair.
I do want to replace the weather center and clock tho. I have replacements, just not the focus this time around.

Nice job. I like the way you organized the wiring.
