Electrical panel

[jorgeinmiami]

So I'm thinking ahead about what to use as to the panel. I'm want to go with Bocatech switches but thinking how many do I need plus a couple of extras for anything down the road.

How many do I absolutely need?

Nav lights
2 bilge pumps
1 baitwell
Under gunnel lights
Console lights
Washdown?

Coming up blank as to needs

What does everyone else have on their 20?

And then I found these that look a lot like the bocatech at 1/2 the price

Love those push button switches. I almost used those but chose not to for a couple of reasons.

I’m going for more of a classic look. Lots of teak etc. I decided on rocker switches due to abundant options.

I’m getting close to finishing my rewire plan on a 72 seafari 25. Read: ripped all wires out total redo.

Here’s my switches as planned so far:
Horn- momentary on/off
For. Bilge- double throw on-off-on switch for float sensor or override
Mid bilge- “
Aft bilge- “
Bilge blower- on/off
Fuel pump- on/off, my boat has an electric fuel pump “assist”
Windshield wiper- on/off
Nav lights- on/off/on for running or anchor light. Note: could also do 2 single throw switches
Courtesy lights- on/off- led rope lights ++also turns any lights on compass or gauges etc..
Dock lights- on/off
Spreader lights- on/off
52” Light bar- on/off- it’s 150k lumens��
Underwater lights- on/off
No bait tanks etc...

Non-switched no control panel:
USB charger/volt meter
Cig lighter adapter
Radio
Fish finder 1
Fish finder 2
Stereo

Cabin will have a couple of lights, inverter, and usb charging ports.

PLEASE MAKE SURE ALL CIRCUITS ARE FUSE PROTECTED... and has matching wire amp rating. I’m sure you know this but it needs saying.

I started with that and then went through what was already on boat and what I wanted in it.
