If I recall correctly, the general rule for wiring specs is that the gauge is quoted "one way". If the wire has to return, or continue, past a fixture then you have to increase the wire size as appropriate. The best book I've seen on the subject is by Charlie Wing, although there are some good web sites too. Try Ancor Marine at http://www.ancorproducts.com. They have some good info and a listing of all the ABYC standards for wiring. There's also a "wiring calculator". Both references are under the Technical Information tab on the home page.
