You might as well call it solid wire because it doesn't look to be capable of bending easily. The ends of the wires are severely corroded and the crimps don't look too good. At the very least the cable ends should be sealed with liquid electrical tape or something similar. The wire itself should be finely stranded tinned copper and the connectors could be soldered if the wires could be rigidly supported for 6" or so from the end. (There are different schools of thought on this). It just doesn't seem right to be running wire in an aluminum boat in the absolute wettest part of the bilge. Other than that it looks really good. Tell you what - why don't you go up to Nova Scotia and "do it right". I'll watch and learn. :) I'll fly if you buy. |
