Has anyone replaced the cable TV wire from the arch to the amplifier area? If so, what is the route? I see the wire leaving the amp, heading past the head, so I figure I can snake into the closet in the aft berth area. My biggest problem is that I can't find a way to get to the arch without disassembling major things. I am pretty sure that the cable comes down from the arch into the area where the port fuel tank is, because if I remove the small light in the wet bar area, I can wiggle the cable wire from the fixture hole.
In any event, if you have ever run a wire into the port side of the arch, please let me know how you did it!
Thanks in advance!
My boat is a 1998 not a 2002 so it may be different.Has anyone replaced the cable TV wire from the arch to the amplifier area? If so, what is the route?

I have replaced my cable. It runs down the arch to the port side then they ran the cables down the port side behind the electrical panel and the sink cabinet.
Where is your TV located? I would think that it would be run down the side that the TV is on. Your cabin lay out differs from mine.
No, I did not need to remove the sink or anything else. If your old cable is still in the arch just pull the new one through with it.Yes, that's what it seems like to me, as my TV is on the port side.. What was your method of replacement? Did you have to take out the sink cabinet? I was really hoping not to.
Cfd95, I installed radar last season and I thought that was the TV cable, however, on my boat that cable was for the FM radio antenna.
No, I did not need to remove the sink or anything else. If your old cable is still in the arch just pull the new one through with it.
If the cable is not there run the new cable down the arch and the find the end and pull it through with a wire or snake. You will probably need to remove the panel where the old cable comes through to the TV in order to pull it. It was a very simple job to do mine.
I really cannot remember as it has been a couple of years ago. I do have a cabinet on the port side under the arch. Maybe that is where it ran. If you have not figured it out in a couple of weeks PM and I will check mine when it comes out of storage.My old cable is tie wrapped all along the way, so pulling the new one in with the old one won't work. I can drop a new one down, but where will it be running? Basically, I can't figure out how to get from the arch into the cabin without taking major things apart.
