I suspekt it might have just gone up the priority list a bit.

Matt, we just switched to the spare batteries and trundled home. Confused readings from a dodgy Avo baffled my Avionics Guru. Took the boat down to Mermaid in Ferndown who put another Avo on her and the alternator was chucking out 27 volts as expected. Told them to change the alternator anyway. When it came out the wiring in the back of the alternator had been shorting out at some point in the past and the connections shot. I do remember rogue Wave borrowing the boat recently  )
One recon alternator later and we are back in business, but yes its on the to do list after seeing the wiring in Levithong and being thoroughly put to shame. Still not bad for a first attempt at an inboard and it did start first time.

A good friend of mine who's a marine electrician has 2 criteria for new wiring installations - "Electrically sound and pleasing to the eye." Seems good advice....

im not a marine sparky but electronic and electrical engineer i work on £40m of machinery from fibre opics to 200A supplys, a neat loom is always best, true they can fail but with the right protection it should limit damage(jw just sounds like bad luck... shit happens!). They are easier to fault and when spilt for repairs its also easier to fashion new cable and re loom. Can you imagine what your car would look like if merc or bmw believed in loosly bundled cables.. youd have nowhere to sit!! Thats the only no no with looms is mixing signal with power etc etc.. oh yeah but did have trouble removing my new cables from my boat cause id hidden them so well
