This question is directed to anyone who owns, or has owned, a Baystealth. I'm installing a Minn Kota I-Pilot on my 2000 Baystealth 2180. The local boat shop wants somewhere between $600-$900 to install it. I'm good with installing it myself.
I've got everything I need to do the installation...trolling motor, quick-release bracket, plug, 6AWG custom cables, 60 Amp fuse, Battery Charger, and batteries.
The boat has a spot already setup to accept the trolling motor that has never been used. I have access through the anchor hatch so that I can through-bolt the puck for the release bracket just fine.
I believe the boat has a chase for running wire to the front/bow of the boat from the center console...just like it does to the stern. There is one 6" round access cover located in the starboard hatch leading to the front of the boat. I removed the cover and I can see under the deck. Running my cables to the access cover is easy enough. I'm just not sure how I get from that access cover back to the center console.
Is there a chase or some kind of PVC pipe I can access to complete my cable run to the console area?
My question is how do I get access to route the cables from the batteries to the plug at the bow? Do I need to cut into the vertical walls of my hatches to access the chase that runs back to the console? If so which one? How do riggers find these things?
