Edd,

 

You probably could find a marine electrician on City Island to do the crimps
for short $ after you measure the runs you need, mark the spools with tape,
and bring the wire spools, lugs and shrink wrap tubes to him.  That way you
could get "good" cuts and crimps from a "good" crimper without shelling out
the $700 Denis mentioned.  

 

He is getting $ for very little time on his part, and you are getting top
quality cuts and crimps without investing capital.

Fred,

 

Thanks, but the lengths are all a question mark. I purchased a large spool
of red and black cable and are going to do the runs under this and over
that, and then cut/crimp. 


All the best,

 

Edd

Edd - I have one of the big crimpers, and could do cables for you.  I just
need to know the gauge, the length stud to stud, and the stud sizes for the
lugs.

You ain't gonna like my answer.  My buddy and I use one of these:

I'm thinking you don't want to pop $700 for one.  :)

There are imported version for a lot less.
