[QUOTE="Jdholmes, post: 226322, member: 6982"] I think I should be able to do it in one piece by rotating the plywood lengthwise...the space between the seats I don't think is wider than four feet...I I'll have to measure, so basically using the board as a 8x4 instead of a 4x8 if you catch my drift. I don't want to do the bottom floors any more than a few inches up for now. I might do a rod holder a little later. I want to keep it as simple as possible to start. The conduit I was looking at was just a PVC sewer pipe about an inch in diameter...look at the plumbing supplies at lowes or home depot...it is easy to cut and has all kinds of different angled elbows you can use to come back up from the bottom of the boat to an exit at a nice gradual angle. The thing with running wire is you want a nice slope up - sharp angles will make it harder to push the wire through. You also want it a wide enough diameter that it will have lots of space for as many wires and their possibly large ends as you will need. [/QUOTE]
