Anyone know what they do or otherwise go to? Other than taking a long time to start (whether its hot or cold), the boat runs fine.

I would first think that they are wires not used on your setup. They build a wiring harness that is ready for multiple setups and only use the wires needed, Get some pics up or at least wire colors and someone might be able to figure out what they are for.

15263855356_deffc516ca_z.jpg 15263855356_deffc516ca_z.jpg I tried to re-attach the picture. Let me know if it works or not. I can see it on my computer, even the first picture...but when I look at this thread with my smartphone the picture is indeed missing. Anyways...the colors I think are orange, black, and brown...right now they are all tied together under a piece of electrical tape.
