congratulations on your purchase. I believe you might be talking about the wires for the bow light. The wires coming out of the side of the boat, look like they may come from the foam hull. Most likely they go thru the hull to the rub rail. If you take lose the rub rail at port stern and peel it back to this area. I think you will see, what I'm talking about. This issue baffled me too, when I first got my Montauk.

One newbe to another welcome to Whaler Central. I see I joined one day before you. And your birthday is one day later than mine. Plus a few years LOL...
