Use heat-shrink connectors for watertight splices if needed, and test the system in calm waters before heading out. This approach not only saves time but also enhances safety on the water.

Why Boaters Choose This Cable

Beyond basic connectivity, it offers superior shielding against electrical interference from nearby engines or radios, ensuring glitch-free operation. Its pre-terminated ends simplify setup, while the extended length accommodates larger vessels or custom layouts.

Long-Term Care for Peak Performance

To keep your cable in top shape, inspect it annually for frays or kinks, especially at high-flex points. Rinse with fresh water after saltwater exposure and store your boat under cover when possible. Avoiding sharp bends during routing extends its service life, letting you focus on the joys of sailing rather than repairs.
