Front Powered Bimini on 22RTFB

So how’d you get the port wire to the starboard helm power/switch??
 
There is a wire bundle conduit going from the port side to the starboard side under the deck. Easy access to snake the wire.
 
I will add a comment on power Bimini wiring. When I added the electric actuators to the top of the boat up north I choose to have equal length wire running from the switch to each actuator. I did this to insure equal current flow to each actuator. The extra length of wire running to the starboard side was coiled under the console. When I got my new Bennington last summer I noticed they did the same thing. On a side note when I examined other boats to get circuit breaker size for the boat up north I noted that a 4 amp breaker was used. My new boat in the cities came with a 6 amp breaker. In my case both tops operate just fine but I wonder if this is why some folks report circuit breaker issues.
