Engine room lights - wiring

02\21\2011 Docked in Marina Cortez in San Diego Harbor Island.
We picked up some more supplies at Marine Eexchange. Now we can wire up the engine room lights to the electrical panel. 
 How come we have more black 16 awg wire than red??? That does not seem right :) We bought a 100 foot role of each and we ran out of red but still have a good amount of black! 
 There is a breaker there for the “Engine Room Light” and we like the convince. The breaker is too large to protect the wire as my thinking goes so we will ad an inline 5 amp blade fuse.
Also picked up the nice cable holders for the what else, cables :)
