Default Trailer Wire Repair

Ancor hot melt glue lined heat shrink. It shrinks, and glues itself to the insulation.
Don't skimp on the length. You can get it in good chandlerly. I've also seen it
at Lowes or Home Depot, but I don't know if their's is marine grade.

Also, as prevention, a cat, preferably the neighbor cat that keeps ****ting in my yard.

My trailer had a wire chewed through by a mouse over the winter. I can
get at the spot that needs to be fixed so I would rather repair it then
pull it all out and rerun wires. Problem is this section of wire will
submerge when launching my boat. What would be recommended to cover
the bare wire after I solder it back together? Thanks for any ideas!
