2 color marine grade wire?

[luckydude]

So in my quest to replace the hardtop with a pilot house, I need some wires.

14 gauge dark blue/white - for spreaders
14 gauge gray/red - for nav light
10 gauge red - fuse box power line
10 gauge black - fuse box ground line

The solid colors are easy but anyone have a source for two colored wires?
I really want to get this right because my owner's manual lists out what
wires are used for what.

The X/Y colors are X is the primary color all around the wire, Y is a stripe.

Also try Sherico in Pompano Beack Florida. That have marine wire in all colors cut to length.

Yep, Sherco popped up while searching also. Looking on their site, says all products American made.

As you're looking around, don't trust the word "marine" in some ads. Anybody can slap that term on. What you're really after is "tinned" wire - that's the important part.

What Dennis said!! ^^ I also make a habit of using adhesive-lined heat-shrink connectors as well. Not needed everywhere but doesn't hurt either.

Thanks, learn something every day. Found what I needed at Sherco.

Yer welcome!

The next part to this is the crimp connectors. Ancor makes excellent stuff. As noted above, adhesive lined shrink connectors are the top of the pile. Many (good) manufacturers don't even use shrink tube, though - so don't worry about going "crazy" with this. BUT... while you're at it, you certainly could if you wanted to

Oh... and get a good crimper - the kind that comes in the cheapie kits that supposedly do all kinds of things are horrible. You don't need to spend a ton of money here - you can get a good one at HD that you'll have for the rest of your life. Klein makes good ones - Channel Lock, as well. As an example, here's the Klein that I have (I found it quickly on Amazon): https://www.amazon.com/Klein-Tools-...-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&th=1
