To run wires through the guard would need changing the feet from single bolt style to the two bolt kind. The single bolt style has the bolt inside the tubing while the two bolt style places the bolts outside, so you can run wires up inside. Pricey but might be worth it if you want to hide the wires? Some new pedestal guard kits include the feet, so for a few dollars more. . . Check for Edson as well as Navpod.

If so. Loosen up the guard at the binnacle, lift it up and you should be able to drill holes through the cockpit sole in the hole in the castings. You can then route cables down the guard. .

There is not enough room to go through the pedestal as the autopilot and engine cables are taking up most of the space and I don't want anything to get tangled. The pedestal guard is the obvious choice but there are NO HOLES down there. Only nuts on studs or bolts at the base of the guard tubes. HELP! A new pedestal guard seems like overkill just to run wires. And yes, I need the chartplotter at the helm. Thanks in advance, I know someone will come up with a solution :) _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
