The question "Is any #12 AWG wire" ok for an application. As I have learned the difference in wire of the same AWG (other than material) can be significant for an application. It's all about the insulation.

Marine rated electrical wire that will provide a great deal of resistance to corrosion which is important if you spend a lot of time near the coast.
