I need to fish some wires from the helm to the power panel on an 01 298 vista. I got a Nema N2K cable and my XM lead going over the stairs into cabin above headliner about 3 feet short. Anybody do this?

I may just go under thru the shower sump box I recently found instead of overhead like whoever did that installed the stereo system did. I just need to find out if I can easily get from the helm station to that shower sump box.

Have you tried removing the two fluorescent light fixture housings?

Luba. On my 248 in the midbirth the ceiling panel drops down with just a few screws. Remove the power panel under the steering wheel. U will be able to access the side of the boat from there. It’s an easy fish. I don’t know if you have the same closet space I do beside the bathroom. On my boat in the back of that closet there is a panel. Remove that panel and you should be able to get what you need after you push under the steps and thru the front sump.
