Hello everyone, I've been lurking around here for a few months now looking and learning from everyone's builds. Now it's my turn to build mine. I just bought a 14/38 Duracraft. This isn't my first jon boat but it is my first experience in alot of ways. This is my first dealings with a livewell, fishfinder, etc. Basically what I need help with is the materials, i.e. wire, fuses, bilge pump, etc.
Trolling motor. Minn Kota Edge 45/45.
What gauge wire do I need to run from the TM to the battery. Do I need to put a fuse between them?
Livewell.
What do I need as far as bilge pumps? The livewell has a drain plug in it already so would I need a separate bilge to remove the water afterwards?
5 gang switch with 12v power socket.
I plan on running my bilge pump/s, bow, stearn lights to this. Would I need a bus bar as well?
Humminbird 859 HD DI.
What amp/style fuse do I need to run from the graph to then to the battery?
All help will be greatly appreciated. If I'm missing anything please tell me lol. I bought this boat and ended up having to redo the transom, decks, and several other things. I'll definitely post pics of my progress.
Thank you all.
