Default Can I use Solid wire for rewiring sailboat if not WHY?

Properly done, a crimp connection is
as good as a soldered joint.


no. a crimp connection is ALWAYS better.

Never, never, never, never is a soldered conection anywhere "as good as" a
crimped connection.

crimp first --and correctly -- for connection integrity, THEN solder if you
wish for corrosion protection.
