You should be able to get a wire snake feed around the rod locker to the bow, remove the inspection covers on the back side of the front deck and the bow, go to the hardware store and gt a cheap wire snake

do you have a GT version or one with a cap?

if you have a cap, you can easily run the wires under the edge. this should be where your power lines are already run from the factory and you can just zip-tie your network cables to those.

if a GT version, the power and ground wires should be run under the deck up to the cap already...you could disconnect one and use it to pull your network wires from the bow back to the console...just be sure to tie a string to it so you can pull the power line back up to the front when you're done.

here is the dash shot and front deck of the ny tuffy, just found it on the computer...
Ram mounted HDS-8 on the dash... my old trusted X-15 on the front... MK maxxum pro with lift assist and US2... might not be able to see the removable bracket on the trolling motor... very roomy front deck for a 17-6 boat!
