Hi Alex,
That sounds like a good plan. I will suggest that you light a small
indicator lamp on the interior panel connected to the "on" switch of
each exterior panel switch (exterior, instrument & navigation) so
when you snuggle down in an anchorage you can see if you
unintentionally left an exterior light burning.
Where is the anchor light, deck light and a red cabin light switches
going to be? Unconventional, but there is an argument to have them
all outside too.
Dammit, precious little starts to get complicated :)
Cheers, Russ

So here are my thoughts and I'm not really an electrical guy
My old panel resides under the traveller track just on top of the
companionway stairs as they all did and has a combined 12VDC panel
with 15 switches and fuses and 3 AC switches and one big rotary main
1-2-all-off switch.
The old household style SQUARE D incoming breaker has been
replaced by a Blue Sea dual breaker each 30A one going to the new
electric motor charger and the second one going to the new smart
charger for the house bank. On the starboard side of the
companionway, there was a hanging locker which may have been
converted at the factory or by a PO to hold a stereo and two VHF
radios. Above that facing the cockpit are 3 almost new condition
WS45 instruments by STANDARD HORIZON.
The plan is to keep it as simple as possible but to move the panel
to the locker on the starboard side above the nav station and to
have a sub panel (already installed) in the cockpit where the engine
instruments were.
So, for example the exterior, instrument and navigation lights would
be switched from the cockpit as well as one bilge switch. The
engine installer installed a 6 position BLUE SEA switch bank that I
can use for whatever.
Everything else, and there is precious little, would be switched
from the cabin panel.
Then, as I have most areas accessible, I want to run new tinned wire
to the lights, nav lights, pumps etc.
Get the picture? So what should I worry about?
