Hi Phil,

Thanks, I am going to examine my coaming boxes, sounds like a good solution.

Hi Harvey,

 

When I’ve done a 12V outlet install I chose the Marinco brand outlet, Anchor brand cable, fused the power at the source, and shielded the receptacle form the elements by installing it inside the combing compartment.

 

The factory installed 12V outlet on Wing Tip is in the port combing compartment which it shares with a shore power inlet and a 120V outlet. My starboard combing compartment holds the RAM Mic connection (which doubles as a VHF speaker) but on earlier boats this is where I put the remote VHF speaker.

Hi,

I have a 12 volt searchlight with a cigarette lighter end. I know you can buy a receptacle with a watertight seal, but as soon as you open the seal and insert the cigarette lighter adapter in it,  it is no longer waterproof.  Any suggestions?
