Looks great Johnny! I did pretty much the same thing on a bracket I made for Christine's canoe. Same lights, and same wiring mistake; I used 18-gauge and a small switch and I melted the whole thing in an hour and a half. I switched it all to 12-gauge wire, a bigger switch with the correct amp-rating (Bulz helped with that one) and I used stranded wire since it's much easier to work with. I did run a separate switch for each side, since I fish alone and can only look at one side of the boat at a time. I put the switches down lower in the boat and used switches with a longer, lighted-toggle so I could switch back and forth with my foot. And it was sooooo quiet!
