It would be nice to follow those guides when rigging my project boat, but I haven't come across any multi-colored wires from my go-to vendors (genuine dealz for example).  Can't say that I've seen them at WM either.  Just the solid color stuff.

Ancor's website

I found a few different lengths in 10AWG of the Green w/ Yellow Stripe

Would have thought the Brown w/ Yellow would have shown up. :?

In case anyone is interested in proper wire sizing for a boat:

It's a bit different from house wiring due to the big effect that a voltage drop of just 1-2 volts can have on a 12vdc system.
