I would recommend a terminal block. You can buy them in several differents sizes (2,4,6,8 terminals). Connect one large wire from the battery to the terminal block. 10ga would probably be large enough for this. Then run all of your low current grounds to the TB (running lights, bilge pump, etc.) This keeps the battery neat and easy to remove.

so i can put it on the casting platform on the bow?..thanks, that was smart A$$
