Putting it on paper is the best way. I have rewired boats up to 48' completley after they sunk. We stripped all the wire out of the entire vessel and started from scratch. I would take poster board and all the different colored pencils I could find and layed out all the wiring. starting with simple fuse blocks as big as you needed and go from there. when you lay it out one circuit at a time it becomes very simple. You just have to size the wire and circuit breakers for the equipment.

Kinda fun I think. I wish I had been doing it my entire life, has been a real full filling experience. I know I could go out in my retirement and get all the work I want right in my neighborhood of a couple thousand in the water boats.
