I am restoring my Starcraft Islander and I am almost done. I also want to install the Penn Electric downriggers that were on there originally. I have 4 good working 800s. What I need are two sets of power cables. 2 from rigger to boat and the 2 female ones that go to the power source. If you have a source let me know. Thank you.

If you're looking for power cables that have plug ends for cable removal you could easily fabricate them yourself

Currently I hooked up cannon cables and they work fine, but in this case I would like to go original all the way, partly because it looks neater and partly because I fish solo 99% of the time and being able to raise and lower the riggers from the the dashboard makes it a bit easier.

Thank you, I am quite aware of that, but I have looked all over the place to find them and they are almost impossible to find. This is sort of a last resort thing. Besides, I am looking for information, not for bids and offers.

Sounds like good excuse to install an autopilot….lol
You are right and I took your advice. I went with a garmin reactor 40 with GHC 50. It cost me an arm and a leg, but I am told that burial shrouds do not have pockets.
