Most of the hose. Only two pieces not here are the fill pumps to the sac. I don't know if this is unconventional, not the freezer for a work bench, building the hose out of the boat then putting it in. Seemed to work easier for me. Hopefully I will get time later today to install it in the boat. I still have to put the clamps on but figured I could do that in the boat and it gives me some flexibility.

Worked on putting the hose in the boat today. I still need to put the collars on and get the ends done.

I need to find a way to clean up the cables for the batteries.

I also installed the breaker for the switches. It started out easy but ran into a slight snag. Patience Patience Patience

Looking good Skippa!

I need to get a little label for the breaker.

Harbor Freight has labels.

Man, that's coming along nicely. I may copy this if I add ballast this year.

Other than the spaghetti cables, looks great!

I need to find a way to clean up the cables for the batteries.

LOTS of wire ties JBorts was about the same way. I rerouted, disconnected, reconnected and zipped tied like crazy to get the battery cables cleaned up.

Got the labels, without going to HF or calling Snap On. I had them tiny and my fingers didn't put them on too straight but once they hit I wasn't going to make a mess a pull them off. I should have taken a picture before I put the breaker panel back on the wall of how I connected the breaker to the buss bar. If any one is interested or would like to see how let me know and I will pull it off and snap a pic.

Nothing picture worthy but I did get all the pumps grounds done. I decided to run them all to the ground buss on the transom. As was shown there is already too much going to the batteries.

Next up make my wiring harness for the power to the pumps. Already measured and ready to make. Then I need to put the quick connects on the vent, drain, and fill hoses. I am still trying to decide if I want to run the fill lines along the gas line towards the front of the locker or run them along the side divider behind the back divider and up over the top. Any thoughts?

Nice work skippa. I will be in behind that box this weekend to wire mine up What all is inside and what snag did you run into? My battery area is a mess of wires also. Seems that attention to detail was not practiced in that area. I cleaned it up some last year when I was working on the wiring and batteries but still needs some work.
