My winter/spring project this year started with simply rewiring the mast and adding a foredeck light (adding breaker or switch for this). It evolved to include adding a wind instrument and replacing the speed and depth instruments/transducers as well. This led me back to my mess of a battery cabinet where I couldn't bring myself to leave the rats nest as is. I'll need to add a second DC panel to accommodate many of the random taps the POs had off battery terminals over the years and want to plan for solar, a battery combiner, and a battery monitor. I want to keep my 1/2/B battery selector and add an off/on start/reserve battery bank switch as well. This is obviously a very Maine Sail-influenced design (I hope his health continues to improve!) and I appreciate any comments and insight you guys have on the attached wiring diagram. I know that the alternator should be wired to the house bank and will eventually do that with some engine upgrades next season (I'm in for more than I bargained for this year).
Thanks in advance!
