There was no standard diagram.

Prior to their tie-in with Mercury, Boston Whaler sold the boats to dealers without motors. It was the dealer who did the install and added accessories.

What are you trying to troubleshoot?

What do you have now? Is it not working? Have you replaced the bulb(s)? Often corrosion will cause a bad connection. Removing and reinstalling the bulb often solves the problem.

The original wires for the bow light were either in the hull (inaccessible) or in the receiver track of the rubrail to the stern quarter where there was a hole drilled through the gunnel.

There was a buss bar and cover mounted over the hole on the gunnel. The stern light wire (loose) also connected to the bus bar. A 3rd set of wires went from the buss bar to the console to feed a switch. The positive to the switch and negative to ground.
