So... It seems that I only have two wires running up to the mast area in the cabin - certainly not enough for the lighting I desire to add to the mast (anchor light, steaming/deck, and lighting up the wind indicator). Seems that they ran the wiring forward and then around the forward hatch before putting in the headliner. Not much room to run over to the breaker box. Any suggestions?

On my B323 there is an access panel in the overhead next to the mast support pole. Wire the hot lead to several switches, each connecting a different light. Anchor/deck/steaming/spreader.

Thanks Ron... I was thinking that might be my only solution. As I'm using LED lighting I really don't have to worry about excess current draw and it would not require additional breakers so it might, in fact, be the simplest approach...
