Don't mean to sound like a complete dummy, but how do I connect all of the wires to the battery? Is there a componet that can attach to battery for all the wires?

Most marine battery will have 2 sets of post, 1 standard that car stuff use and one post with threads that you attach stuff to then kept tight with a wing nut, hope this pic help.

You can buy clamp on terminals for the posts with one or even two screw terminals, you may have to check auto parts stores.

Run an 8GA lead to a bus bar, 10 position, connect all your leads to that. Positive bus and negative bus. Protect the positive with a 40A Breaker...
