I went "old school", and used the buss bar and fuse block for the glass fuses, I was able to salvage them from the wire mess that was handed to me from the previous owner ( I was also just about out of money after purchasing the boat). I ran some "Romex" from the battery to the buss bar (it's been working for 20 years), everything else was ripped out by me because, it was all red wire, no legend, and a nightmare to work on, so I took it all out and re-wired from scratch (it was easier). Make sure you leave some extra fuses and accsry. area's on the new fuse block as you will be adding toy's to the boat over the years. You can also direct connect the accsry. to the battery using a dedicated wire with an in-line fuse. I found that running some of the wire through a hose helps too, it extends the life of the wires by mostly keeping them out of the sun, keeps splash off of them, and can be easily attached with "cable ties" to just about anywhere. "Homey-Depot" has a huge supply of poly hoses sold in any length (bulk roll, you buy by the foot). I use "American sci-plus" on line for electrical supplies, they also have those "Kooky" thing's all us inventors need.
