Hi guys,
I have been trying to figure out the best way to rig out my boat. Currently it is set up for a johnsnon outboard w/trim/controls. I do not have a motor at this time and may switch out to another mfg.
At the end of the day originally the cables were run on the exposed gunnel of the boat. I cannot seem to find how to place these systems under the floor while I have it all open. The electrical connections were obvious and I am replacing those under floor tubes to allow for the new wiring soon to come.
I can't seem to find anything about what size tubing I should place under the floor to allow for any generic rigging solution when I get to that point. Floor is completely removed and when the weather gets better I will be replacing stringers, transom etc as they are already removed.
Any comments appreciated.
TX!

Ayuh,.... Under the deck ain't the greatest place for cables, nor wirin',...

It gets WET under there, which leads to corrosion, 'n all sorta Troubles....

That's why most boats run that stuff down inside the gunnels...

Hey well there...thanks for the feed back. Of course all boats get wet there. "Ayuh,.... " Perhaps yours more than others. In any event maybe I didn't explain that I want to place it in riggin tubing to the outboard. Same as the electrical in another tubing under the deck.
Intelligent info appreciated.
