Can't help with the fuse blowing except to suggest like you that it's possibly due to a leak, but ref the leak there's a couple of Mazda TSBs from 2006 that might be relevant:

09-036/06 9/21/2006 Water Leak Above Side Windows

09-013/06 4/20/06 Water leak at front of convertible top

the way you write it suggests that the car will not start as a fuse blows. If replacing the fuse only results in it blowing again then it might be a job for the RAC a mobile mechanic or a tow. There may well be a fault in the starting system - I would have thought a fault in another circuit blows the fuse for that other circuit?

Starter relay shot? Loose connection to starter or even a.short in the com or solenoid contacts inside the starter motor its self it could probaly be something abit more simple then that but Yeh your best bet is to take it to a local auto electrical workshop

guess you mean the tie down hooks. Sounds like a flat bed or a tandem required.
