ROUTE POWER CORD

Route the installed 6-footlong AC power cord to a place that’s easily accessible when you need to connect the three-prong plug to an extension cord. At the same time, make sure it can be tucked away in a dry location when you’re out on the water. It should be in an area that’s at least 24 inches from the charger, batteries and fuel-fill lines. Some boaters route the cord through the bulkhead of a dry locker under a seat so you can lift up a seat cushion to easily get to it. If you do this, seal the hole around the cord to prevent water from getting in the compartment.
