[QUOTE="Rat, post: 124325, member: 1914"] I completed pulling all the wire last night and finished up about 2/3 of the wiring. I got the light pole sockets mounted and batteries figured out as well; I just need to build some battery platforms and strap them down. The trolling motor platform and transom cap are turned in and they are being cut from 1/8 Alu. and broke the correct shapes; I may have them today, but for sure by tomorrow. That trolling motor is HUGE on the bow of that boat. I gotta figure out a permanent plug location for it, but I think I will use it attached by rings for now, until I use it and see if it needs to move. Plus I will need to take all this out at some point to paint, the less I have to take out the better. The cockpit/courtesy lights turned out better than I expected, they light up real well. Motor parts still aren't here yet. I will be fishing this weekend so not much is going to get done, next week promises to be nice weather so maybe I can get her water ready by then. Pictures when I get home... [/QUOTE]
