Thanks for all the great advice so far.
Yes I am indeed powering up a couple down riggers and a few other things on my secondary battery.
This the reason for the bus bar so I can reduce the amount of direct connections to the battery.
Here's what I need to power:
Down riggers x 2
Transom live well pump
Wash down pump
Kicker motor
I want to leave the primary battery isolated for the main motor and helm power.
Lead lengths to the down riggers will be less than 8 feet so 10 ga wire is appropriate and I plan to use a Scotty in line fuse to match the down rigger.
I recently saw a small adapter that converts the battery post into a second threaded stud. I might just do this to keep it simple.
