Who's Good At Rigging Boat Electronics?

[Lifes2Short]

I just bought a used bass boat that has old wires, transducers, and other misc. wiring. Is there somebody in the Springfield area that is good at electronics and would come to the house and help me with figuring out what goes where? Maybe a trade out for a fishing trip to Stockton????

Thanks in advance,

Todd

There is a ton of info on how certain configurations go for bass boats, throw in GPS and it get a bit more tricky.

How much electronics does the new rig have? GPS?

What kind of rig did you purchase? (make/model ETC...)

Willing to help if I can.

Also what make/model are the electronics that you do have? Possibly a picture?

Electronics really aren't that difficult. You typically only have 2 wires plugged into the back of a depth finder unless you have a temperature or speed input (most just have the power input and the transducer input). The power input has 2 wires; red (positive) and black (negative). The red wire needs to be fused. The tranducer wiring is pre-wired at both ends; the wire goes directly into the transducer at the tranducer end and the other end has a molded plug that plugs directly into the display unit. I recommend just starting at the display and tracing out the wiring. Any unused wiring should be removed.
