    I'm not positive, but I think your positive bus bar and you panel need to be swapped around.

    Bus Bar, Wire Gauge and General Wiring Questions

    I'm not sure about the trolling motor wiring, but for the accessories I believe that positive power coming from the battery goes to your positive bus bar, then red wires from panel goes to bus bar. Then positive from whatever accessory goes to an open tag on back of panel. The negative battery...

    Alumacraft 1232 Jon Boat (Miss Peach) - Complete!

    Thanks for posting the pic of the back of the switch panel. I hope you don't mind, but I have a couple of questions. Will the red wires with the in-line fuses now be connected to a bus bar, and will the wires that run to whatever is being powered also have an in-line fuse, or is that overkill...

    buying this tomorrow

    I have a very similar boat with a 2 stroke 25hp Johnson. It's a electric start and I keep the battery in the back along with the fuel tank, which makes it a little stern heavy, but it's a great sturdy boat and having the 25hp is great when you have a loaded boat. My seat pin is in the middle of...

    Trolling Motor Position

    I need help with where I should mount my bow mounted trolling motor. I have a modified vee hull with a small front deck and would like to have the mount positioned off center of the bow. I hope to accomplish this using a piece of high density plastic cutting board (roughly 1/2 inch thick and the...

    new boat i might buy

    I may be wrong, but I thought Performance trailers went out of business a few years back. I have owned one for over 8 years and it has been great, so nothing aginst them. They use parts that are easy to find and replace. Sounds like a great deal.

    Non-Skid Paints

    Rat, Thanks for the information and suggestions. I think I am only going to do surfaces that will get foot traffic, so I guess I will be removing the paint from the decks. Russ, I was thinking about going with 3/4 ply, for structural integrity of the floor, that would sit directly on the ribs...

    Non-Skid Paints

    Thanks for the input. Here are a few pictures of what I am working with. I've had the boat for around 8 years, haven't used it much since I got a bigger boat (funny how I got a bigger boat and truck shortly after I got my girlfriend), but we recently bought a house within a mile of a great lake...

    Non-Skid Paints

    That's what I was going to do with the foam, do you think I should cover it with anything, or is it dense enough not to absorb water?

    Non-Skid Paints

    Hello all, and thank you ahead of time for your wealth of knowledge. I will be attempting to put a removable wooden floor in my boat in the near future and I have read about the hazards of using carpet when your boat will be exposed to salt water, so I have determined that I will be painting...
