Hope someone can help……. Recently purchased my Bavaria 32..”jester” (first ever boat) and had it transported to my local marina. Unfortunately there was no record kept of which colour went to which colour when the mast was taken down.

I have the following wires……

From the Mast > 2x Brown / 2x Blue / 2x Green & yellow.

From the Switchboard > 1x Green / 1x Grey / 1x Yellow / 1x Blue / 1x Black. ( The first four do have numbers on them 1 – 4 )

It might be nice to have some lights working on the mast and if anyone can help I would be most grateful.

Many thanks…..

Don’t have a diagram but perhaps you could switch on at control board for each function, note which wire has power to it. Then apply 12 volts to each wire on the mast, note which light is activated etc., or is it more complicated than that?

Thanks for that, I have sort of tried that method but was rather hindered being single handed at the time, will try again this weekend although the other potential problem is that being a brokerage boat that had already been dismasted once (on its journey from Wales to Southampton) I have no idea which, if indeed any of the lights actually worked at all.
Was hoping someone had that section of cabin lining out or on velcro as mine is (slightly worrying?) and could give a definitive colour to colour so I would know if there was a problem elsewhere.

Thanks again……..Paul

I have been messing around again and get various lights on with different permutations of wiring and switches so a definitive would be most welcome.
