Hey Whatknot does this look right?

[whatknot]

I went ahead and laid out a diagram for you. If this .jpg doesn't print well I can send you a pdf. Make sure you get at least the busbar with 10 poles for attaching accessories. I love this set up. Set it and forget it.

Here ya go Blue.

Blue,

I usually trailer the hull to the Skull Creel boat ramp that is right after you cross the bridge to Hilton head island. From there it's just a couple of miles to the port royal sound. I fish the entrance in about 60 feet of water for cobia. Beaufort is cobia capital round here. I fish the entrance because you can get a jump on them coming into the Broad River and there's nobody there.

Menhaden under balloons, chum like crazy, drink import beer and listen to Pantara. Cobia love that band and will come up for a listen and a beer. At this point I put my mask and fins on and gaff 'em.

So then you run your accessories from the busbars to the Switch/fuse panel on the dash...right? Pork Chops of the sea love Pantara...interesting! Diagram printed great, thanks for taking the time. I think simple will be better.

Did you read how this system works? Yes, I agree that simple is better. For me this made to much sense not to use. I've had the single bat switch deal all my life. But after reading how BlueSea handles the charge and discharge I couldn't be without it. With a standard switch, I never really new how my bats were charging and discharging. With this system the switch stays in the "on" position all the time and the ACR directs the current were it's needed. You only use the all position if you don't have the juice to crank.

Yes, mount the busbars close to the switch panel. You will use mostly grounds to the busbar from your accessories and your positives run directly to the weatherdeck fused switch panel. That is one cool unit. I love the LED backlit feature that indicates on and off.

Thanks for the diagram and advice, i'm going to get the goods tonight and start after the new fuel tank is installed. Let me know when you head to Skull, I'd be glad to buy the beer and gas.....never fished that far north.
