Seafari rigging doesn't go under the floor like a CC . . . it runs under the gunnel. No need for a 90 degree turn. I found some flexible PVC hose at a marine salvage place, I think about 1.5-2.0" ID that I think I was able to fit up into the coaming above the fasteners for the coaming bolsters. It has to go above the teak rod holders that are fastened to the inside of the coaming. It was pretty tight. I used some split corrugated wiring loom to run wiring from the hose down to the battery switch and negative buss in the stern. I had to disassemble the Deutch connectors for the engine harness and then reassemble them after running the wires, as those plugs were too big to fit. Braided polyethelene line works well for pulling wires thru because it tightens up when you pull on it, sort of like an old Chinese finger puzzle.
