    What is this black sealed box with 5 wires?

    Ho many batteries do I need?

    Right now there isn’t anything. The lights aren’t even wired in. Looks like someone ripped all the wiring up, cut a bunch of stuff. I’ve got house wires As of right now there’s nothing that works. No nav lights no gauges, nothing. Just a big mess. I’ve got non marine wire in there, wires...

    Ho many batteries do I need?

    Haven’t actually sat down and calculated the load. It would be the normal bass boat stuff. Let’s see…. Like, a bilge pump, two live well pumps, nav lights, panel lights, live well lights, maybe a couple of courtesy lights, maybe in the future a few spot lights, a 12v receptacle, couple of USB...

    Ho many batteries do I need?

    lol. Yes, I only have a cranking battery at this time. I was gonna buy a battery for the house wires (which I still have to figure out). I was wondering if I bought a trolling motor and it was 12v can I run it off the same battery as the house circuits. Also, if I buy a 24v trolling motor do...

    Ho many batteries do I need?

    I guess I need to know if I’m wiring for the stator ampacity or for the load requirements. Don’t know what the wire guage sizing is based on. Both? It’s a typical bass boat with lights and pumps and stuff, no power inverters running coffee pots or anything. Isn’t it the case that the motor...

    need help wiring 1977 evinrude 175hp on 17ft Glastron

    Clymer manual says that the engine puts out 10-35 amp regulated charge from the alternator and I've been trying to figure out how to wire in an ACR and battery switch. Problem with this boat is everything has been cut and replaced once upon a time. It's a rats nest with nothing fused. I also...
