[QUOTE="Douglasdzaster, post: 493568, member: 27803"] I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! So much for throwing the battery and fuel tank in and going fishing. I didn’t want to make any holes then later move the battery. I bit the bullet and have 25’ of 4awg cable coming and the battery is going to be in aft of the boat under the motor. I drive the tiller from the starboard side and the fuel tank is on port side. I don know if it’ll fit running through the top of the ribs on the gunnels like I have the other wires ran on opposite side. I have everything els in a wire loom I’d like to protect this stuff somehow also. I ordered all the connectors I need and the cheaper crimping tool you use with a hammer. A new 6 gang rocker switch panel for all the other electrical instead of the plug and play set up which I think I’m plugging in the bow light and get blinded by a led flood light. It’s a mess. But it’s all located together so it will be easy wiring in the new panel. I’m trying to decide if I want to cut the hole in the bench seal or figure out how to put it in a weather proof box and put a plate by the transom in the corner and mount it there. Also more hardware like thumb screws to make it easy to install and remove the bait cutting board , fuel tank platform etc. I dropped another $200. If y’all here a big explosion in Texas my wife looked at the Amazon account. Lol She hasn’t complained not once. Yet that is. [/QUOTE]
