Re: wiring diagram for a tidecraft

You need two wiring diagrams -- not one. There are two electrical systems on a boat. 1) that wiring associated with the engine is covered in the engine service manual. 2) Boat wiring covers the battery, the gauges, lights, console and any other accessories. Good luck on #2 as those diagrams are not usually published by the boat manufacturers for the simple reason they don't have any. They outsource the console so it becomes a bolt it in and connect the the harness from the battery. They add a bow and stern lights and out the door she goes. There is a sticky at the very top of this forum for the gauges which is very typical of any recreational boat.
