Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a 2017 StarCraft Limited? Im looking to install a depth sounder and am finding little information on the boats wiring. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

that's what I was afraid of. When bought the boat I expected to get some type of user manual with all that stuff in there but never did.

Any idea on where I get power from? The wiring is much more complicated than my old boat. There's a bunch or wiring harnesses (some not used). I assume I get the power from the ignition but there isn't a buss bar to tie into that I can see.

You don't want to use the ignition to power a fish finder. If you stop to fish, you need to keep the ignition turned on.

Find a buss bar that is hot all the time. Bilge pumps and lights are powered at all times. Use the same feed hot buss and use a fuse to power the FF.

Isn't there a fuse panel behind this access hatch?

These switches, power port, and stereo are connected to the fuse panel.
Follow the red wires back to it.

This is what I see...It look like there are two quick connects that haven't been used (just hanging there). They look the same as the ines connected to my speedo, temp and tack. I assume they are for optional gauges as I have two blanks in my dash right now.

With the newness of the boat....have you talked to the selling marina or Starcraft Marine? They should have that information available for you.
