110v outlets in the Salon of a 2005 41 CMY

Post by jspin101 »

Carver only decided to only put one 110v outlet in the Salon and it happens to be above the galley counter.
I was running an extension cord to the bench seats but want a permanent solution to avoid a tripping hazard.
I have thought of coming off the fwd guest head's outlet and putting one of those pop-up outlets on the ledge under the salon window in between the couch and the bench seats, that would take care of the port side.
On the Starboard side I'll put one where the phone jack is (thanks to Midnight Suns's idea, may be even an inverter too).
Anyone ever done this? Any thoughts or suggestions would be great.
Thanks for looking.

Odd, you have the same boat only 2 years older. Looks like they changed some electrical.

I assume you need something near the bench seats? If so then mount one in the seat facing outwards and run the wire below deck. This is factory on my boat :-D Not the best picture but look at the lower left corner of the picture on the side of the bench seat you can see the white outlet.

There is also another outlet which IMHO is rather useless but you can see it above the TV cabinet to the left of the speaker.
