Installing CMC PT 35 T&T

I just finished installing this unit on my Livingston 14, a small
open skiff. I used an 4" x 4" x 6" waterproof electrical box, mounted on the transom under the engine, to house the relays and wiring. I imagine this would work for jackplates etc.

How do you post pics here? I have them on my hard drive.

 

Photobucket sucks. I don't use sites that collect personal data. Too bad this site does not allow uploading photos from a hard drive.

At any rate these boxes are great for protecting electrical devices in open skiffs.

 

The pics are out of order...sorry.

This keeps the relays completely dry. I also wrapped the relays with silicone rescue tape that I got at West Marine. The remainder of the wiring is stowed in the battery box. The 'conduit' is 5/8" OD tubing made by Watts. The ends are sealed with silicone.
I think these boxes would be good for switch panels too. Just get one big enough and cut out the cover and affix the panel to it. This box is 6" x 6" x 4".

 

Thanks. It worked great!

 

Thanks FC. A year ago I was ordering the hull. I'll post some pics of the whole build/boat as soon as I get it out where I can get out of it.

 

I like what you did with the waterproofing. I'm still early enough along in my build, that I may consider something similar. Will have to study your pics a bit more.

Thanks. It was not difficult...just a little thinking outside the box. This is an open catamaran hull and presented a few obstacles.  If you want more pics, send me an email.

I wrapped the actuators with this http://www.rescuetape.com/
even though they are in the box.
