Wiring Suggestions

[rcnight]

I have a mess under the console and thru the fore/aft rigging tube. Time to clean up the mess. What is the prescribed method for running wires etc. thru the tube? Bundle them up tight in one run or let 'em all run loose? I don't recall which method I used before - just know I couldn't pull my messenger thru as it was getting hung up. Thanks in advance.

IMHO if they're tied tight you'll never pull a problem single out.

Old's cool has good point.
I ran my wiring under the gunwhales and deck stupidly zip tying them together in neat bundles.
At the time I was thinking about neatness not worrying about future electrical problems that may develop.If I had to do it over again I'd run them loose, through a rigging tube.It sure would make it a whole lot easier to pull a single wire out if a problem was to arise.

Thanks for your thoughts gents - how would you treat the wiring harness? Excluding the harness? Seems like I have more than my share of other stuff sharing tube space. I have the batteries and oil tank under the console as well.

Leave a pull string for adding future wiring.
