Amps placed. I just ran my wires through the cut-out holes in the board and into their plugs on the amp, then screwed the amps down and it holds the wires in place, tucked behind the amp:

Nice work!! Looks clean and out of the way. Glad you decided to do it.

Thanks, it was definitely worth an afternoon of work!

Looks great man! Glad you decided to do it!

Much better. That was a damn mess of wires. I will put pics of mine without an amp rack when I finish. I did it so 90% of the wires are not seen.

Nice work, that looks awesome!
-
Nicely done...that turned out really good!

Thanks!

No hinge, just screws all the way around it.
Dusty put pro mariner onboard chargers on his batteries so all he has to do is plug an extension cord into the boat. I think he ran his to the rear ski locker so the cover barely has to come off to plug it in. I wish I had done that.
Also if you need a jump out on the water ... the bottom right of the rack below, there is a pos and neg post ran to the crank battery which allows you to hook up jumpers. Nice addition for 40 or so bucks.

KG,
Very nice setup!! Pro Mariner, I had one of those in my last boat. It had a bad habbit of cooking batteries. Of course here in TX the heat is hard on them, plus the added heat of the charger, I had to add water at least once a month. In Arkansas you are probably not as hot as we are. I would need to have more frequent access to the batteries.
Who is your source for the Exile amps? I hear they rock!
