Rinker Wiring Standard?

212rowboat

does Rinker use a wiring standard?  If so, which one and for how long?  What was the previous standard?

example:  Brown w/ yellow tracer usually equals illumination (brown) and switched/outside power (yellow tracer)... 

I'm looking for a method to madness, and hopes that the electrical engineer there was a reasonable fella... 

it's humorous, but it's a true story:  

Fact: There are 20 Wiring Standards... 
Thoughtful engineer:  "I shall standardize this crap"
Fact: There are now 21 Wiring Standards... 
Thoughtful engineer.......................
Fact: There are now 22.....

They use ABYC standards. If you google their standards, the colors match up.

Thanks, CG... have they always?  Not that it is that important, but a curiosity.

As far as I know, yes. My old 1998 232cc was that standard and so is my current boat.
