I lost my new battery switch, bought it December last year when I was collecting parts and now I can't find the damn thing so my wiring is on hold till I get that figured out. I did however get the engine harness started, just need to get nuts for the starter and lengthen the oil pressure sender wire. All brackets and the ignition/alt. are tidy.

And a little parting shot. Still have a ton to do but knocking it down little by little. I Ordered my rub rail Friday I hope it works out, 1 1/4 stainless hollow back. I know its taller than average but for this particular boat I think it will work fine and I like the old school stainless look. Ordering carb linkage plate tomorrow and gotta figure out what I'm doing for batteries.

For the batteries, I laminated 2 pieces of 3/4 together with a big ear on the top piece. The ear rests on the aft bulk head for support. I used alum. engine mount angles on each end to mount it to the stringers. Holds 2 large batteries easily.

Thanks, Guess I should have been more specific. I have boxes, I don't however have batteries. Do you have a link to pics of your boat?
