    Default wiring diagram?

    So i was just gonna take the boat out a few times before i tore into it and start my restro but, during a cleaning my buddy almost fell through the puzzle pieced floor, it was that rotten. Didn't feel comfortable taking it out so started the restro early. So while pulling out the side panels, we came across the boats entire wire loom. We noticed a ton of wires that were capped off or cut or just plain hanging out freely. Which leads me to my question, does anyone know where i can track down a wiring diagram or PDF? I should probably tell everyone what kind of StarCraft and O/B, its a 77 American with an 84 Johnson 115. thanks in advance Starmarda!!!!!

    The wireing to the Johnson will be in the loom from the helm to the motor and the trim also 2 wires to the Battery. The rest my way to do it is cut every thing leaving a length ,and totaly rewire the boat to a central fuse panel.. You will be happy with the results and all circuts terminate at the same location. Wire color?? there was a diagrahm about what color went to where . I just used heavy red and black to the fuse panel and from there to the acessoruies. and lights. Thats a lot easier well was for me to rewire.

    Agree, but many wires change color thru the years...............age

    also use a multimeter for continuity/accesory ID and quality of wire
