Did a complete refit 10 years ago...For about a week I found out what it was like to be a contortionist in confined spaces...LOL!!
It’s on my list too… and I’m dreading it.
Aaron, thank you for the tip about rolling the sheathing of the wire back on itself and trimming for the "finished" look. I copied your example and was pleased with the result; looking good.
I’m an electrician of 35 years and I must say that is one fine job. That’s how my panels and equipment turned out. Nice. Neat. And labeled.
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.
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.
It's amazing how easy you make this look! I was stressing just wiring in my new garmin last year.
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.
Great job I have learned a lot watching you guys. Did a rewire a while back came out pretty good thanks to you. Watching your channel gave me the confidence to give it a try. Big thumbs up 👍. Stay safe out there 👍😎🌴
Watched your videoes for a year now, and wanted to change work from Hvac and over to my hobby boat, for a couple of years now. . And finally ist a reality, starting at a boatyard as a mechanic in july.
That looks amazing! Work of art! Getting the VHF to receive the GPS coordinates from the chart plotter is a job in and of itself. Took me hours get my Evo3 linked up with my Standard Horizion vhf. I had to learn about talkers and listeners and nema2000 vs 183 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Just did this on the 21' SeaSport I bought and repowered this year. It came as a rats-nest and I couldn't take it.(I'm an electrical engineer) All the electronics were junk so all new everything now.
did a total rewire on 1986 26' sea ox. used only tinned marine wire, adhesive lined shrink connectors/ tubing, and oversized zip ties. dont cut corners on this project. great video of the process!
Awesome job and lots of good info! I like that you started by explaining that a clean starting point and planning your layout are very important. Excited to see more!
Good time to fill holes and paint the interior of the console!
I noticed that you did not use dielectric grease on the connectors, and exposed panel connectors. I use this on my truck. It really helps in the winter to prevent corrosion on my connectors.
That's a whole Lotta awesome-Ness right there Aaron! Nice job boss man 🙏 be blessed my friend
Absolutely amazing job. Thanks for all the tips.
Getting ready to strip and rewire completely 89 bass tracker 1600tf. Excellent video. Was planning the same, clean and repaint where possible.
Very nicely done Captain! You do great work!
I enjoyed this part of my life back about 5 years ago. It was really gratifying to wire in nema 2000 to everything and have a kick ass stereo gps and all of it!
Missing the Tech Tuesday. Hope you come back soon
Was always looking forward to seeing your videos..very informative.hope u have the time again
What job you're a master my eyes are full of joy seeing you working thank's.
All done in 11 minutes!!! It's a perfect world.
Make this look easy. Experience is a good teacher
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.
Very informative video, but daunting task for most of us I think. You broke it down well.
Just got back from Yamaha school in Georgia meet a technician from shelter bay marina ya do a great job on born again boating keep it up I’ll keep watching
absoloutely fantastic! So informative.
Wow man that's a neat job ,wish you could rewire my boat .. but one thing I would have like to see you do and that was to put fresh paint on the inside of the console... 👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
Perhaps the best video I've seen all week? This is so awesome, thank you!
Excellent work and editing!
Were have u been no new videos 🤔
I can see from the way you wired you're panel with a little extra length to the switches. The worst thing to work on is one that was cut barely long enough to plug in. I also have color coded wires so things are very easy to trace. Great job and it looks right and ready..
Awesome! I think I will definitely join the website someday, but for now I don't have a boat. haha
Beautifully done...
Helpful Hint:
Use meltable liner heat shrink. Much more moisture resistant.
Don’t even own a boat but this looks like a fun overhaul kind of project
I award you the best golden charismatic boat refurbishment king 2022
We are fixing to do this to my 05 mako 1801 in January when my new 115 Yamaha comes in.
the video I have been waiting for !!!!! yes!!!!
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.
Very impressive and satisfying work you have done here . Keep on Keeping on sir !
Thank you very much!
Oh man!
If I was a "Florida man" I would so take my 20 y.o. rig to you for a re-wire!
Since I'm not I guess I have to do it myself, so thanks for valuable tips in this video!
Ikr? Same here
Nice intro! I really enjoyed the video audio mash up.
yoohoo! looks like a good time!
I love watching these videos
Very very nice work and layout. Impressive!
Thank you very much!
Awesome video, one suggestion, Permasleeve for marking the wires. Won’t wear off and gives it a clean look. I use it all the time and works great (industrial electrician)
Permasleeve 🤔 now this is something I gotta look up!
wow awesome work!!
What happened 2 Tuesday's in a row and no video 🤔 is everything ok
As a marine tech myself, gorgeous wire install!
Impressive. You do such nice work. When are you going to open your own marina or travel to you repair business?
What kind of underwater-lights would you recommend to attract fish? (Great if they are not super expensive)
New subscriber here, WOW! Neat work. Planning on rewiring my 19’ SeaFox soon, how long did this take you if I may ask?
Could you do a video on Demand linear and how to know if it is properly set up ? Thank You
That wiring is pretty!
When re-wiring are you redoing the engine controls/harnesses too or just the switch items?
Nice work a dymo 5200 label maker would make your labels super clean on your electrical ends
You might mention flush cut dikes for trimming your zip ties….saves lots of cut forearms, and also using good quality zip ties, not the harbor freight specials which last about a year.
Lol @6:37 looks exactly like my 1978 boat!
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.
Am I able to wire all of my lights and fish finder and suck to my key switch so that the only way everything works is on the key twitched to on position?
Man I love this video.
Just finished rewiring my entire boat (17') and used boatoutfitters and newwiremarine for a lot of the supplies. Not cheap by any means, but highly recommended!
Ah cool I've got a 1978 '17'er that could use a rewire too. I'll try your recommendations 👍👍
When are you going to post new content? I really enjoy your videos
Nice works😊
Nice job neat work and no mess
Glad you liked it!
Boy!!! You're speedy!!!
Don't forget drain holes in the t-top 😛 nice video. 👍👍
Great video, I've done plenty of boats and was wondering do you charge per job or hour? what did that job cost?
Love you channel, I'm battling air suction in my 50efi mercury , above 3200rpm motor give 4 beeps and start shaking then when i drop rpms it runs fine , maybe next video you can explain why when I have my hose disconnected from the motor and vertically position I cannot fill the inline clear filter , the bull seems holding pressure , but air in the filter not getting pushed by the gas? I thought I'm good in physics but I can't explaine it:)
Nice job done
Do you have any videos or knowledge of replacing an Omc seadrive with a regular outboard?
Love the videos I tried joining the bab but it asked to answer the math question which was non existing on safari fyi
Aaron, I have a bay boat that I am re-wiring. Can I use an AGR between my starting and trolling motor batteries? 12V starting and 36V trolling.. Thanks!!
Boat manufacturers should watch your channel!
I always run a Spare in long runs and label on both ends...
Nice Video ? I did an entire rewire on my 240 Sundancer a few years back, cleaned it up just like you did.
Fantastic video
MORE RESTORATIONS WOO!
OCD is happy thanks to this video
Is there a marine grade wire connector that you prefer to use?
Why are there connectors just behind the Deutsch plugs? They can be easily re-pinned.
Спасибо за экскурсию как должно быть)
Where you been man? I hope you’re still going to make videos.
We haven’t heard from you in a while. I hope everything is ok.
I need rewiring my boat but how i know what size and boltage of wire buy?
Lol! Currently there is not a single wire present on my boat :D
That will change when I'm done rebuilding and remodelling it. Good times ahead!
Lol hopefully by now you're finished with your project? 🤞🤞
@@hankschrader149 Lol, actually no. 🤣Temperature only just started allowing for polyester work about a month ago.
Combined with one hell of a work month, it'll be some time still :)
Love these videos and your skillzzzz just wish the inside would have got painted but never the less beautiful
Do you know any indoor boat storage for rent in miami area?im looking for some to work on a 26ft boat, thanks!!
Dudes where are the videos for months now am all the way in jamaica 🇯🇲 I need these videos
May i know, What type the cable did u use?
Impressive! Are you aware of how difficult it is to find someone that can do all that? I’ve got a 40’ houseboat that needs that done and I can’t find a single marine electrician that I think could do all that. We could use someone like you in STL!!
You want a car audio installer for this kind of stuff. An electrician does ac voltage and this is all DC.
Where ya been? Miss your cool videos!
Man I wish I had half the amount of room in my console. Key West 1720's are built a little different.
Brother and fluke make heatshrink wore labels that work fantastic for this as well
Wheres the parts list? That would help a lot
