Happy New Years everybody! I’m restoring an old tinny and need to move the battery forward, maybe 6-8’. Any suggestions? Is marine grade necessary if I’m going to run the cable thru pvc to an enclosed battery box? I’ve seen the jumper cables trick but am concerned with overheating. I should note that the boat is an electric/manual start, will be used in f/w 99% of the time and stored in a arid high desert climate.
im sure most will say replace existing cables with a marine grade singular +/- cable, however, this is a budget build just to get a few lines wet. I’m also concerned with the difficulty of connecting the cables to the motor itself as I don’t believe they’re using a ring connector, hence why I’m leaning towards a butt splicer. Thanks in advance!!
