Just had a thought regarding supplies like wire, ring connectors, etc...
You may want to check out Pacer Marine, they manufacture their own wire and its a fraction of the cost of Ancor products. I'm lucky that they have a warehouse locally, but even to ship they could save you a ton of money. You do have to open a account with them to pay with a credit card, but they just make it in your name.
Oh and I strongly agree with the suggestion of getting a quality crimper, I got a nice ratcheting one designed for insulated terminals at pacer for around fifty bucks.
