    Battery Local

    I called Susuki and then told me to use 2 gauge. I am sure they are just playing it super safe but my estimated cost for 2 gauge is about $60 so might as well do what the MFG says. Thanks everyone for the help.

    On Top or Below??

    Thanks for the feedback. I mounted it this way because I thought it would be more attractive and less of a trip hazard. But the 6 bolt and the hole negate that. I'm gonna put it on top.

    PERKO locaiton

    When my Perko switch was originally installed they put it under my seat. I am thinking of moving it to the deck. This way I would be less likily forget to move it to the OFF position at the end of the day. It would definitely get hit with water.. but I assume it is designed for that. ANy...

    Wiring Specs

    I am ready to add lights to my Aluma Craft. I bought the v12 boat lights. I have my 12v marine battery. The guy at home depot said I should just use low-voltage landscape wiring. Doesn't feel right to me so I thought I would see what you guys have to say.
