[QUOTE="YamahaC40Guy, post: 84432, member: 953"] OK, the job is done...with some help from my brother in law. :wink: That marine-grade wire purchase hurt....8g @$2.00 a foot (x2, one black one red) So, at $4.00 a running foot, I picked-up 24' after figuring out how to route it. My helper (rather, I was helping him) checked the voltage at the female socket end at the bow, it was reading 24V. I'm guessing we ran the right gauge then, there was some concern it might drop over that distance. Fishing season opens in about 2 weeks!!!!! Thanks for the input guys. Rob [/QUOTE]
