For smaller boats that don't have enough room for such wall mounted distribution box I recommend Wago connectors. They are rated extremely well and provide constant clamping force so you don't have to worry it will pull out. Also, awesome thing for labeling is getting Brother label maker which uses TZe tapes, and then getting a tape with shrinkwrap tubing. It's so good and clean, also produces permanent label which won't fade in water or sun.
@royprieser5408 2 жыл бұрын
Great video, all points are so true -- three points to emphasize: 1. Labeling, make sure you label Everything -- I bought a Brady Label Maker so I was able to make my own custom heat shrink labels, saved a ton of time when hooking up to power buss and a year later when I was troubleshooting an issue. 2. Pull chase threads -- double important if your going up into a T-Top or tower. 3. Clean everything twice. Oh yeah, it's a god idea to have a good digital volt meter on hand. Love all your videos!!

What I learned from my bass boat wiring, it’s a lot easier to work when it’s clean. If the wires are a mess and you don’t have enough money to do all new wires, cut off ends, coil and zip tie the coil and move it up behind panels where it’s away from everything. Make sure you have proper or oversized wire size so you do not cause an electrical fire. Heat shrink and proper connections is a must. And be ready for some awkward positions and hundreds if not thousands of zip ties. If it doesn’t look good redo it to make it look professional you won’t regret it later

Man. Very comprehensive. When I did my last rewire I didn’t do a buss bar for negative and had all in a +/- blue sea fuse pannel. I built out my pannel from new marine wire, and added the contra switches. Really happy how it came out, always I wish I had my wires tie wrapped a little cleaner.

I was a NMEA certified Marine Electronics Tech for many years. I mainly worked on mega yachts and commercial ships, however there was the occasional "under 50 footer" refit that came along. I hated them. There are a few exceptions, but many manufacturers lack in quality wiring practices and then years of "my buddy installed" installations, along with wanting caviar on a potato chip budget, just made me dread these types of jobs. They are very time consuming to do correctly. Don't get in a rush and don't cut corners. Remember to use non corrosive fasteners and the proper protectant when using stainless fasteners on aluminum tubing and surfaces. Enjoyed your video.

Nice video. I rebuilt an old 16' aluminum boat and one of the most time consuming an expensive parts of the job was the rewiring. I had to plan everything because I was adding stuff that wasn't part of the boat to start with. The original wiring had a nav light switch, livewell switch and a bilge switch and that was it. I added LED locker lights, power plugs for charging phones, wiring for fish finders, a battery disconnect, fuse panel and a battery gauge. All of the new wiring was Ancor marine grade to replace the old plain copper automotive wire. What made it really fun was trying to route the wires because most of it never existed. However, unlike you, I color coded the wiring in addition to labeling it.

Messing around with 12v dc is my thing these days. Always adding 12v DC accessories to my truck and rewired my boats a few times. My main tips fuse everything, use marine grade wire and make sure its proper gauge for amps drawn. As well as water proofing as much as possible.

Great video. I'm not an audio engineer or even an audio snob. But you missed an opportunity to greatly increase the quality of sound during your rewire. That speakers that were mounted onto a quarter inch layer of fiberglass (min 3:20) loses a large percentage of its effectiveness (volumn & quality) because the energy is spent by vibrating the thin fiberglass. You can test this for yourself by holding the speaker (playing music) in your hand. Then place the unit into the mounting whole (with the music still playing) and see for yourself the increase in sound quality. The opportunity missed here was that speakers should also have been mounted to the board, instead of cutting holes around it. The sound quality would have been increased significantly, even if only half the screws went into the board. I looked up those speakers and they are $700 a pair! Vibrating the thin fiberglass is probably making them sound like speakers that cost a quarter of the price. When you buy speakers for your home, they come in a cabinet for a reason. The structure holds the driver and the driver vibrates the cone. The cabinet keeps everything sturdy so that the speaker can efficiently produce the sound. My whole system cost less than $700 and I bet it sounds pretty darn good compared to the expensive one in the video. All my speakers are mounted to solid board, the thicker the better. You put backing boards and plates behind just about everything else (rail cleats, rod holders, trim tabs, hand rails...), why not speakers? Peace, Love and Safety on the Water to All.

In for a penny in for a pound. Lord my boat is so small, and Your Sea is so Great ! The farther out you go the smaller the boat gets. Fix it in the yard or fix it in the inlet 🌊 - make it part of the boat and follow the code using marine grade only. Solder not nuts.🌊 That said - starting from scratch is usually your best option unless you trust the former guy.
