    77 Carver 2866 Santa Cruz wiring help

    Being that old it's not likely you can find the diagram unless Carver has it. Most likely you would just wire using the boating industry standards. Don't know if you have a Gen, but without one of those run house Bat wiring, into cabin and use buss bars then go to fuse/breaker panels
