Transom pictures please

I'm rigging the boat at the minute and I'm trying to keep the deck as clean as possible so running everything under deck. The pictures below are my boat and a Humber that was rigged in the same way I'm planning, sorry to whoever owns that particular Humber as it was somebody at an ERR.
The problem I'm having is that the A frame wiring on my boat is causing an issue, the cable come out of the frame at almost deck level and I can't find a way of keeping it "clean" looking, the Humber in picture doesn't have an A frame.

If you have a pic of your transom with A frame could you post it on here so I can get some ideas.

Cheers.

I’m not sure why there are two of each but my ducts come into these pods either side of the boat . Osprey eagle but these seem to be a bespoke fitting as I’ve not seen them on any other osprey so far

my A frame wiring went through the floor under the frame into the ducting, i replaced the witches hat in the deck because it leaked for a toilet conector and glassed it in. sealed round the cables with potting compound inside the connector.

hope that helps

Transom boxes are a bit of an Osprey trademark, especially on older models.

Underdeck trunking on mine exits inside the stbd transom box. All A frame wiring run internally and exits bottoms of frame straight through top of box into trunking, nice and neat, the way I like it [emoji1303] Works well but not had to rewire anything yet.
