Here’s a question for Nitro Z17 owners, are you able to place 7’6” rods in the center front deck locker? My new 2024 will not fit them. Not to happy about this..

Wiring the Z17

Snake the power and finder and network cables thru the gun wales. Don’t try the the keel, it’s to narrow. 
 

From console to the back. Easy with a fiberglass snake.

3 - 8 gauge power duplex wires and 2 transducer cables. 

2 from bow to stern. 
1 network cable from the console to the stern with a network jumper. All Garmin, Live scope, 2 - 102. 1 - 106 and a 93 Ultra. 

Drill a 1.5” hole thru the console in-line with forward of the factory hole. , snake to the bow and stern.

Consider changing the post title or starting a new thread on how to modify my Z17. 

FYI  the Bob Cat holds 8’ rods and wired the way you want the Z17.....
