    Rigid conduit for cables to motor?

    I have seen on alot of boats people are using some sort of rigid tube looks like a hose from a shop vac type thing. What are you guys using for the tube and do you all mount your primer bulb in the boat when doing this? Just trying to clean things up on the boat when rigging it. Als do you put a slit in the tube for access or fish all the cables through it solid?

    It's called rigging tube or hose. Has a connector at the boat and the engine ends. You run everything thru it. No slits for access. Most newer engines have the provision for it. Older stuff can be difficult to adapt it to. But it can be done. Primer bulb in the boat...

    Anyone seen any at HomeDepot or Lowes or anything like that? I have used 2" Oil resistant tubing for electrical work before but I know that only comes in rolls of 100'
