Hi John,

I was wondering if you have a source/type/model for your thru-bulkhead connectors? I'm close to having to deal with wiring and can't seem to find any thru-connectors that seem suitable.

Thanks,

Bill

I'm wondering how people are routing wire to the transom. Particularly, I'm wondering about how to negotiate Bulkhead 8. Leading it through a hole under the floorboards at bulkhead 8 would keep the wire out of view in the cabin but places it low in the bilge at that point. It would also require a watertight thru-hull fitting I suppose. After Bulkhead 8 I imagine wire would be routed behind the seat backs in some way. Suggestions?
Thanks,
Bob

Hi. I guess LED navigation lights are like varnish...you can spend a fortune for the fancy brand or $14 for a can of Minwax Helmsman Spar Urethane and get the same result. These nav lights work for me. They seem to be well made and they are very cheap compared to the big vendor's prices.

A "LED Navigation Light" search on ebay will bring up many, many more.

Good luck. Jerry mtsailor
