This is my friends 2006 305. In my boat I have one wire from alt/starter and that goes directly to my common post on my mbs. How would I wire it if you have a starter and alt wire?

The "common" cable and MBSS conection will remain the same.

Bring the charge lead to the starter motor solenoid terminal.

Side note: My alternator cable is routed to the starter assist solenoid, which is on the back of the engine. Another cable then goes from there to the starter solenoid itself (on the starter). I have no idea what the difference is between a starter assist solenoid and a starter solenoid, but that's what my diagram says.

This works too. Is there a reason for one or the other?

However, the shortest path and fewer terminals equals less resistance, and equals the least points of potential failure.... IMO.
