Starting upgrades on 1992 Sea Ray Sundancer 230 Wiring

[@WillysTruckFarm]

Just as you removed the light cover, I said to my wife “that bulb is going to be hottttt!” Oweee!

[@OutdoorRob]

LOL! Ya, I should have known better but it was -25c and I wasn't thinking hot.

[@jgriff3218]

I just followed the throttle and steering cables, There are usually easy to work around in the event they need to be serviced.

[@OutdoorRob]

I thought I was but seems to be a cluster in there, might even be a bulkhead like the other side...seems more difficult that I thought it would be anyway...try again when this damn winter ends. Thanks!

[@Thief400]

Nothing like playing in a boat when it’s -20 lol !

[@OutdoorRob]

Ya, not much fun that's for sure. Getting a little anxious to work on it!

[@vancemarin8022]

I was yelling at you NOT to touch the bulb!! LOLLOL 🤣🤣 Ask me how I know they get hot !!!🥵

[@olivei2484]

I'm starting to worry about Rob ... sigh

[@OutdoorRob]

LOL! Wish I'd heard you Vance! LOL!

[@nostuckmarc8682]

What kind of light you using on your head to help you in those tight spots? looks very efficient and bright.. Looks like a lot of fun as well. thanks for sharing. And I hope you didn't burn yourself too bad with that little itty bitty lightbulb... lol

[@OutdoorRob]

LOL! Itty bitty lightbulb has quite a bite! LOL! Light is a Thru-nite H10. Thanks Marc!

Stagger the wires about 2 cm to flatten the write tape knot. Or use fish tape to run string, then wires (makes a smaller bundle). 4 gauge is heavy wire to run.

[@OutdoorRob]

Ya, they were staggered, just a heavier gauge than I really needed. It'll work good though. Should've run a piece of light rope with them also just in case...oh well. Definitely will run it with the transducer cable when I get back to trying that again. Warmer weather coming apparently this week, so hopefully be able to do some work on it then. Thanks Fred!

[@olivei2484]

@@OutdoorRob The GF runs wire for a living, so it was habbit. Nothing wrong with heavy gauge on a boat.

[@ADITADDICTS]

So are you still going to name this vessel "Boats - N - Ho's" ? 🤣 My wife told me to quit watching "Stepbrothers" after I wanted to name my 12' valvco that. ☹️ lol!

[@OutdoorRob]

LOL! Well I already have a named sticker printed up so unfortunately "Boats - N - Ho's" is out of the question...my wife wouldn't like it either. LOL!

[@ADITADDICTS]

@@OutdoorRob Hey, worth a try lol!
