Electrical Work

[Alex from GA]

Go to Amazon and enter "12 volt fuse panel". It'll save you a bunch of $. You should have about 6-8 circuits. Break down what you need to wire and run a pair from each thing, (locator 1, locator 2, horn, bow light, stern light, livewell pump), etc. Run an 8 ga to the fuse panel. If the fuse panel doesn't have a - buss you'll have to add that with an 8 ga right from the battery also. The bilge pump runs directly from the battery, not through the fuse panel. Use the existing wires to pull new ones, especially to the bow panel.

-Use tinned wire
-If in doubt, always add a fuse for that item at the battery positive (+) supply.
-Dielectric Grease is your friend.
