Easy boat wiring featuring the Tiny Boat Nation Weekend Warrior premium DIY wiring kit! In this video I perform a step by step tutorial installing the TBNation Wiring Kit within a simple budget build 14 ft jon boat project.
In the 14ft Alumacraft jon boat, I dubbed "The Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget Build" / The Bulletproof Budget Build, I install the wiring kit which includes - 14 gauge wire, 16 gauge wire, 6 gauge wire, a 6 gang switch panel, a usb/ volt meter, trolling motor circuit breaker, fuse box/ negative bus bar combo, butt connectors, ring terminal connectors, battery terminal connectors, and heat shrink. I add some led deck light strips, a few hatch lights, a bilge pump, a trolling motor plug, as well as some small led spot lights. I'll show the entire Tiny Boat Nation Weekend Warrior premium DIY wiring kit installation step by step along with the accessories I install to go along with the kit.
I'll cover everything you need to know! What's in the kit, tools needed, tips and tricks, how to make butt connections, how to make 2 to 1 wire connections, how to wire in led lights as accessories, how I rough wire a boat, how to install ring terminals, how to install battery terminal connectors, fuse box installation, switch panel installation, how to wire in leads to fuse box and switch panel, how to wire in a trolling motor circuit breaker and quick connect plug, and give a walk thru of the aluminum jon boat project before, during, and after the build and wiring process.

FINALLY!!! Someone that explains things in an orderly fashion and marks the wires to simplify connection at the end!! Great job!!

Really nice job Anthony !! Very neat and professional build, explained well, with quality materials used. This will be my template for my project in the future. Thanks....keep up the great work !!

I have learned alot from your channel and maybe two other channels regarding building out a jon boat. I have buddies that bring their friend over to show them my 1548 jon boat. Wiring....Hatches...struts....slam hatches....all that stuff...your channel. Thanks... and be safe out there.....

Even though you sanded that metal edge, you still want to put protection on or around those wires, as an electrician and engineer in the marine world, I can promise you, those wires will eventually chafe through. Great video man.

@bradnewman13 2 месяца назад

whats screws do you use to mount these things directly to the ribs?? Thanks, love your content. This video was perfect timing. I'm going to be starting on my electrical this weekend for my 1436 with basically all the same hardware and components. I still need to build out a side-wall box to mount the fusebox, switch panel, battery cut off, and trolling motor fuse switch to.

What edge guard do you use for your aluminum edge protection?

@smithattempts9108 Месяц назад

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats this is incredibly useful to someone new to boat wiring like me. Thank you, to say the least. I am doing nearly all of the same things on my boat (less impressively). How are you powering the Garmin graph… on one of the two batteries you showed, or is there a third? Also, do you run it through a fuse box, or trust the inline fuse that comes with Garmin? I also have the AutoBoat from TBN, so I’m wondering same thing about it. Thank you again… this is high value content.

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats Месяц назад

Great to hear!

@trevorhood6217 24 дня назад

Does it matter if I run everything to the fuse box, then jump from there with positives to my switches? Or is it important to run to switch then jump to fuse box? Thanks

@Tzach2006 Месяц назад

What paint do you use to paint those black areas?

@gsptwosee Месяц назад

How do you know what size fuse to use for each switch?

@jakebell212 2 месяца назад

About to dive into my own wiring this weekend. I’m only about half way through the video, but I do have a quick question. Do you use sacrificial anodes to ground the electricity? I’m admittedly a novice when it comes to electrical, but I thought you always needed a ground outside of the negative pole of the battery.

@bradnewman13 2 месяца назад

Pretty sure in these aluminum boats you specifcally ONLY want to use the negative terminal of the boat to ground. If you use any part of the boat itself it can cause electrolysis which will begin to deteriorate the metal in your boat quickly.

@MikeTLive 2 месяца назад

loving this one. question - what do you use for filming and editing?

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 2 месяца назад

You won't believe this but I use my phone to film almost everything. It's a Samsung Galaxy s24ultra. If we hit the water I have a camera guy for those videos. I also have a drone. For editing, probably the unbelievable part, I have always and still only use a phone. All my videos are edited on my phone through Kinemaster. I'm currently building a new office/editing roo though and I'm switching things to a Mac and a few other programs for editing. But yeah, I've built my entire RU-vid channel on my phone.

Great video but shouldn’t the bilge pump bypass the shutoff switch?

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats Месяц назад

No, it's a manual bilge. If it were auto, yes, I don't use though. I've seen too many issues with them.

@txg1275 2 месяца назад

Is there a place to connect with you on the cost to get a boat built other than Instagram? I don't have an insta but would love to get a sense from you on the cost.

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 2 месяца назад

Unfortunately I'm no longer taking customer projects as I am very backed up on the ones I already committed to. Perhaps later down the road, as in next year.

@GhassanLifts 2 месяца назад

didnt you use 8 awg for the battery to fuse block? why switch to 6?

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 2 месяца назад

I personally do. I used 6 because that's what came in the wiring kit. I tried to use nothing but what was in the kit, minus accessories

@GhassanLifts 2 месяца назад

@@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoatsanother question for ya. If I got some interior hatch lights. Do I need to run all of them to a bus bar or can I just splice all of them into a 14awg wire and just throw a 5amp fuse on it

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 2 месяца назад

That's what I usually do. The size of the lights and draw may determine how many I tie together but I usually run all hatch lights on one lead, all deck lights on another. Sometimes cockpit and bow courtesy lights on a 3rd.

@516Spark 22 дня назад

Which ground is the switch grounded to

@516Spark 22 дня назад

On the bus bar

@516Spark 22 дня назад

And please explain to me why the negative leads of the switch are pancaked flipped

@renifer1152 2 месяца назад

When you combined all the negative wires into one back to the fuse box you essentially are running all the load of your accessories on one #14 wire

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 2 месяца назад

No I'm not. Remember, the accessories are grounded on their own. The switch ground is just to complete the circuit of the switches and allow ground for the led lights. Those switches typically come with 16 gauge jumpers running into one lead, mine are better than what's usually provided.

@renifer1152 2 месяца назад

Never mind you are correct 🤷‍♂️

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 2 месяца назад

All good man. Appreciate you watching.

@cozziwysong3905 Месяц назад

everything looks good but that pump out on top the transom idk why ppl do that when you can put a pump out as small as 3/8'' dumping out the rear corner on either side that over the transom is just in the way and looks goofy

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats Месяц назад

It's not in the way. It's a 1436 with small sidewalls. Hard to get a fitting in above the side rib but yet below the deck height. Sometimes less is more. I don't always do it this way. Part of my job here is to show people simple solutions from a diy standpoint. A lot of guys out there don't want to drill through their hull or deal with sealant. Just an option for them, which is the easiest option available, so it's fitting to do it on my budget build.
