Looking forward to part 2. Getting the on off switches done are definitely on my wiring upgrade laundry list

Thank you, there are definitely significant upgrades in Part 2!

Nice work installing, only one thing that I've had trouble with is the fuse panel under the deck in the front. I've moved mine for the second time to inside the rod locker. 😢 now it is easy to reset the fuses without tools and having to work in such a tight space

Thanks Joe, I appreciate the kind words. Sometimes we have to tweak things to get them just right. 😊

Thanks for the video. I am currently rewiring a 20' multispecies boat . 2 bow graphs, 360 & hub all on a single 8 awg run to a rear house battery. Amy reason not to combine on a single 8 gauge run ( thru 40 amp fuse)?

[@stevechiassonfishing5876]

My electrician buddy recommended two runs of 8 gauge wiring. In my experience, boats run two sets of wires opposed to a single run. It takes a little more effort to run two sets of wire but simpler hooking up the fuse panels. A 60 amp breaker is a good option if you want to expand later.
