Hello all. I am about to "home run" the positive wire for my Trim pump motors on an 88 Sea Ray 300 DA. Not very far. Less than 10' away. What gauge wire would that be? 10-8-0r 6?

Thanks

Ayuh,.... I think the factory wires on a single pump is 8ga., or 6ga.,...

So I'd go with 4ga. or 2ga. for a home run, runnin' more than 1 pump...

I wasnt going to run both from a single home run, but I suppose I could.
