mid cabin - cable TV routing
Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2011 6:07 pm
I added a TV behind the stove last year and decided I wanted one in the V berth as well. Here's how to get the cable run from that area and into the V-berth.
Run the cable over and down into the DC panel locker. Take a break and throw some hinges and a latch so you don't have to unscrew it every time
Then, fish it down near the two cable wraps at the bottom (still inside the locker). Remove the galley trash can and you'll see the other side down in the bottom right hand corner. Then...
come across towards the port side (lift up the hatch in front of the fridge) and go across into the bilge where the FW pump is mounted. Go forward and drill a small right next to the AC drain and then follow that path into the v berth. I'm going to mount a cable box on the AC intake wall and the TV will be right next to the door.
Hopefully that helps someone at some point.
