Want to run the RCA cables [yes the tv only uses RCA] from my tv on the starboard side to my dvd/radio at the nav table on the port. I would prefer to avoid going over the V birth wall, and instead run down starboard side of salon, port to starboard under the aft birth and up into the nav station. I'm just not sure if RCA cable is suitable for long runs like that or if it's even available in such long cables are available. Anything to avoid? Contact or proximity to with ac or dc wiring? Proximity to inverter?
Long Runs of RCA cable

I'm unsure if such long runs are readily available but the connectors are easy to solder onto shielded cable of any reasonable gauge. Given the abundance of radiated electronic signals on a boat, shielded is going to avoid any stay interference(s) obviating the need to route the cable away from any electrical sources.

plenty of lengths can be had, upwards of 50' and that's just pre-made stuff. There are places out there ( http://www.cablesforless.com/Custom-RCA-And-BNC-Cable-Calculators-C161.aspx ) that can custom-make them to length for you if needed.
