I would like to get some thoughts on what's the best way to run
wiring either through the
deck or through the stern
hull. I'm installing
radar on a stern mounted pole and
solar this season so I'll have three wires that I need to run. The
radar cable is 5/8" and the
solar is 10 gauge both for the pos and neg. There are the standard
compression fittings that are typically used, but I read on a blog recently an owner drilled a 1" hole and mounted a threaded PVC pipe connector. After the wires were run through it he filled it with
sealant. I like this idea because if you want to add something like an
AIS antenna wire it could be easily done with out drilling a new hole. Could any members give their thoughts on this and what worked well on their
boat? Thank you and input, I don't like drilling more holes in my
boat than I have to.
