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

In Military aircraft, (some years ago in my experience) only soldered
connections were approved.


Are you sure? That is totally at various with ALL practises I have seen at
anytime in the last 25 years in anything electrical.

I have seen solder then crimp connections fail again and again, even though
they were specifically forbidden. never saw a crimp then solder connection
fail. crimp then solder is industry requirement, and has been for a very long
time. there is a good reason for that.
