I believe my son inadvertently dropped the wires into the bilge, it's a 2002 trophy pro 2052 with a 4.3 mpi inboard. If someone has one could they kindly take a peek iside both doors and tell which side has the wires.

Typically, I usually hook the automatic bilge pump to the house battery. That way, even if it goes completely dead, you can still start the engine with the starting battery.
House batteries are usually bigger and deep cycle. not just a starting battery like needed for MPI engines.
