If I know I'm going to be setting my boat up as soon as I get home, to sail it, and the drive is only 2hrs. or so, I'll leave all the wires attatched to the mast and just coil them up and tie them with the trap handles and the various other strings on the tramp, then slide them under the hiking straps to keep them from going any where.

If I know the boat is going to be sitting for quite a while (months) under cover, before I sail it again, then I'll strip the mast, put all the wires coiled up into the box. Just tie them all up separately and you'll avoid the birds nest of wires when you open the box.
