While I got all these wires yanked out

I'm putting a new fish finder thingy in too. Cables for that are like 30 foot long. What to do with the excess? Previous owner had them all jammed up behind the shifter/throttle housing. Aside from the mess, would that create an inductance issue?

It shouldnt. Most transducer cables now adays are shielded pretty good.
just dressvit nice with the rest if your other cables

Yeah, I've seen one that's been cut and spliced. THAT don't look like a good idea.

Loop them in as large of a loop as you can for the space provided. A small loop can create a magnetic field and cause issues. Now with that in mind, I haven't had any issues with at least a one foot loop. You can even run them back and forth to take up the slack if you want.

That's what I'm thinking I'm gonna do. I should be able to get 2/3 foot loops and zip tie it to the steering cable.
