Cool. I've been looking at various connectors. I was wondering if anyone had experience in that particular wire. There is a lot of options out there.

When I do it this winter I'll do a tutorial on how I do it for future reference.

I like how you mounted the forward reverse
Any more pictures or reason for that? My thought it to keep the least about of bends out of cable...

. Just looks cleaner and easier to use there. One less thing to get hung up on if you get thrown out over 100 mph.

. I did the best I could to keep it hidden in clean. Unfortunately weight was the number one concern. But is clean for the most part.

What are your guys thoughts on the west marine 8 wire looms? 
 I was thinking of using it to go from the fuse panel to the dash. And whatever else. You can get it in multiple gauges and its ~$2.00 a foot. Might be nice for accessories and gauges. Easy and clean.

I have a bunch of 18/8 how many feet are you looking for

The last boat I wired, I used a 7-way cable for semi trailers and Cat. style weather-pac connectors. For the engine, I did just like Sean did with one plug.

When I wired my blown EFI Nordic I had a lot of wires to contend with. I also used the weatherpak connectors and crimped them with the special tool and also soldered them. I could unplug it all in 10 minutes and it would be free of the engine and EFI set up.

Yeah... I always hated the left side fwd/rev... figured being on the right made more sense to people with floor shifters... plus down low makes it out of sight and therefore clean.

I was just being a smartass. ;D
