A little confusing -- the 98 will not have a red cannon plug on the engine wiring harness. It may have an adaptor harness that ends up with a red cannon plug but the engine harness itself does not have a red plug like the 83.

There shouldn't be any box ON the battery cables. If there's a fuse panel by the batter it's most likely for the boat electrics.
