While boats often break some of the NEC rules for home wiring, any splice should be in a junction box. So why not use the switch?

10 gauge would be rather healthy. 14 gauge would meet code if the circuit has a 15 amp breaker. 1 volt of drop is a lot for a 12V circuit, but peanuts for a 110V AC circuit.
