Home improvement stores and Radio Shack sell adhesive labels that are about the size of file folder labels that you can write on. I bought some at Radio Shack several years ago, and apply them to the end of the wire where it attaches to the breaker panel. Write on the label, peel it from the sheet, and wrap on the wire with the long axis parallel to the centerline of the wire.
For things like transducer wires that are routed through the bilge or through compartments under the settees, I just take a short piece of white electrical tape and make a "flag" on the wire, then write what the wire is in case I need to replace or reroute a particular wire. For the wire ends coming out of the mast, I've put a "flag: on each of the wires for identification. There is a junction box in a small locker under the front of the port settee. I put a wiring diagram on the bottom of the access panel to the locker that shows which wire (and which color) attaches where. So I know which wire is which on anything I have installed ot rewired. I just wish that C&C did the same when they manufactured the boat.

I'm doing some wiring updates and would like to mark the leads to make it easier for next time. Thanks,
