I did so on the NH boat but it may have been unnecessary at the lake.
That sounds complicated but it is not. See link below for those.
While 3 watts may not seem to need a fuse, everything connected to the battery does.
I installed a fuse on the positive lead for protection.
The cable has a 12V receptacle plug and an alligator clip option.

Bungee strays. See photo on site. The white parts will lock around the grommets to keep them off the wet deck or carpet of your boat.

This might be a perfect solution, but I can't seem to find the length of the leads–any idea? I could clip it to the bottom of one bimini pole and run it through the opening, so I'm thinking 6' or so.
