The rest of these pics show all the wiring I did... Nothing like starting off with a clean slate. It took way longer than I thought it would. I swear I went through two packs of tie wraps.... and that was just under the dash.......

Turned out awesome and nice job on the wiring. The least you can do is write my name in one of those cup holders and make sure its reserved for me. Now all we have to do is split the bill on a container so I can get a ride in it. Once again beautiful job Jack. I cant believe it floats.

Nice! Congrats. How is access in and out of the seat while docking? Do you find the console to be in the way at all? Wiring looks fantastic.

very, very nice job on the rigging and electrical work. i'm an electrician by trade and i do quite a bit of control wiring. it's an art to "train" and "lace" all those conductors like you did. well done jack!

great to see you on the lake and i'm sure all the hard work was worth it the first time you came up on plane.
