Acquired a 1992 lowe 1620. Its looks like its setup for two batteries' I'm assuming the heaver set of pos and neg go to one battery. Then there's a smaller set of wires red/black not sure where they go. Also have a set of heavy what seems to be ground cables that I'm not sure where they go. any help will be most appreciated.

Welcome
We might need to see what your talking about with pics

Many boats of your size would have had a trolling motor installed, need to trace the cables and most of us are unable to crawl around on your boat from the net ;)

An outboard motor would require heavy battery cables to power the starter. Lighter battery cables could power a trolling motor or other house loads.

Are there any signs that a trolling motor was ever mounted?
