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.

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 M.

I just need to know the gauge, the length stud to stud, and the stud sizes for the lugs.
