[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 418188, member: 13975"] Wow, thanks for the great ideas guys. Enginerd, I like the the idea of just using breakers. Dale is right too....if everything is wired correctly, there is very little chance you ever trip one. So that seems like a good way to go to reduce clutter. Produceman, that is exactly the type of box I plan to use. Right now my ribs on the sides are exposed so I'm thinking about using a piece of a road sign to span between them near the top and attaching the box there. From there I can fish my wires through the gunnel, down the groove behind the side ribs, or through the floor down the strakes. Has anyone seen any junction boxes, or similar products, which come in rectangular shaped options? All junction boxes seem to be either 4, 6, 8, or 12" squares (4-6" in depth). A lot of the switch panels are rectangular and would require the 12"x12" box which is overkill. Some alternative product may be better than the junction box anyway. [/QUOTE]
