- Do it right or don't do it at all!! We will discuss the best tools and techniques to use, the best wire and products you should be using.
Anything made by #blueseasystems is my go to! My #boatlife people will understand. Use the correct marine grade wire, Ancor is the best in my opinion. Make sure your using the proper gauge wire, a fire on a boat is terrifying. Below are some links to the tools I use in this video.

Thank you!
JFYI for sanity later... Crimp then PULL test, THEN Shrink every single one! Always one that didn't crimp Properly! That 2 into one butt slice isn't a good idea either. Never find one in a factory wire job. 👍
You forgot to add a label maker in your ‘good tools video!’
I have a lot of boat rewiring to do so looking fwd to this and other wiring videos
Cheers Warren
Label makers are amazing!!
@@HoldFastMarine how did you get labels on the white shrink tube?
Would you ever recommend putting your nav lights and anchor light on a 3way switch so you can have the nav lights or anchor light on
Oh yes absolutely. I just prefer to have the anchor light on a separate switch.
Nice video. Would love to see the label maker you use.
Thank you! This is the label maker I use

Thanks. Do you use Brother heat shrink or the cheaper stuff off Amazon?
@@bertbuchanan4198 the brother stuff. I don’t buy anything cheap or off brand.
How about a battery isolator to keep both batteries charging, separate from the battery switch?
Sure you could run that.
Your wire looks way undersized to fuse with a 100 amp breaker. Did you use an ABYC ampacity guide?
Sure did.
