I did the same thing. I ran 3/4 flexible conduit on each side of the centerboard under the floor boards. They exit up front under the battery and go to PVC elbows so I can get to them. At the other end they come up in the rear of each lazarette, ending in conduit to male threaded adapter. I made them watertight using an o ring under and 5200 in the hole and under the female threaded coupling. The conduit passes through the rear bulkhead and is epoxied in place as well as being spot epoxied in place along the bottom in the rear. My original thought was to run heavy gauge wires from the battery to ‘some kinda’ of electric motor, but I ended up with an epropulsion. So right now the conduit is capped off at each end.
