They came from Amazon. I am about to mount aluminum on the sides of the boat. I’ll be attaching the fuse block to the inside of it to be protected from water. And the switches on the outside so I can easily access them.

That's a nice looking switch box! thumb

But the back of it looks "con-fusing" to me. Good thing you got a "fuse" block. breakdance grin

Yea it looks confusing at first glance. But when you look at the schematic it’s pretty simple. Without the fuse block you would have a bunch of wires twisted together at the connections. It makes it much more manageable and a lot cleaner install.

Here ya go Texas Grown. This should help a lot to explain. The jumpers you are seeing I believe make it look confusing.

I really hope so. There are a few things I know I want to do right away. But am thinking of just fishing out of it for a month to see what is really “needed”.

Go to amazon search for "electrical box". It's a corrosion proof, water proof box. Mount your switch panel and depth finder to the lid. All your electrical stuff will be protected and you have quick access to the wires by simply opening the lid. thumb

Yes sir. I didn’t plan it that way but it was nice when I sat them on the boat.

Well I’ve done a little to the G3 since the last post. First of all the Millennium seats are comfy but the snap that keeps the seat folded shut broke the first time I used it. frown
