Quick question... anyone have a diagram for this particular boat? I'm wondering how it was originally wired (the accessories from the switch panel). Previous owner spliced into the wiring harness to add in the accessories but I'd rather not do that with the new wiring harness. The switch panel has bilge pump, running lights, cabin lights, and instruments on it.

I have not seen anyone find a biat specific wiring diagram. What i would advise you to do is:
1- Plan and start from scratch.
2- There are typical boat wiring diagrams from Blue Sea available.
3- Use the industry standard wiring colors.
4- Use your motor and remote to search for the gauge package wiring diagram.
5- Label your wires as you install them.

Really not that hard. If you need, I can provide 2,3 and if you provide the data in 4, we can find it.

Let us know if you need more assistance.

Thanks mjf55 -- Once I traced all the accessory wires and such, it was really pretty easy to clean up and redo. I'm now to the control box and tach wiring but I've started a new thread with diagrams of the original wiring and my proposed wiring. Looking for a sanity check to see if it makes sense. All I did was eliminate a lot of the silliness from the splicing that someone had done in the past.
