Just had a starboard side new throttle/drive and a new fishfinder installed on my 15'. The cable and transducer wire extends from the console area to the transom. What kind of wrap do you use to enclose the cable and transducer wire? Currently they are wrapped in a red perforated type plastic material.

Craig - I used this: https://www.boatpartsforless.com/shop...it-tubing/. I purchased it locally at Home Depot. You can see it installed on my personal page.

Thanks. I have a Home Depot ten minutes away. What kind is it and is the bilge pump wired into the system? Your boat is beautiful.

Thanks Craig for the nice compliment. I forget the brand but its widely available in different sizes. Yes the bilge is wired into the system. A lot of water gets in the boat when the kids get out of the water. This way I can empty the bilge with the flip of a switch on the helm rather than move the cooler and pull the plug while underway...

Your boat looks nice too - is that a 70 on it?
