Part II - Cables

Part II of the boat electrics box was kicked off today. First, I drilled out a hole for a cable gland. Through this one I'll run the cables for nav lights, interior lights and the fish finder. I'll put another through for the aerator, as I'll be running a heavy duty cable.


And from the battery box will be another relatively heavy cable, with a waterproof connector. Battery box will remove for charging/swapping out batteries.


I put some closed cell foam spacers in to avoid battery rattling which otherwise would be unavoidable.

Now I have to wait for the last components to arrive - HD cable with waterproof connectors.
