These are in the bow and behind the front panel. They look factory. Anyone know what they are for?

Most likely for docking lights that were never installed. Formula probably ran the wires regardless of whether the boat got docking lights or not.

That would make sense, they are pretty heavy wires.

Yes they are and you can see the other end of them under the dash.
Allwhite00, if you want I have the Formula factory wiring diagram for 1986 242SS, should be almost exact replica as the LS.
Send me your email and I will get them to you if you want.
