Proper Thru-hull (deck) electrical connections
Beyond drilling a hole running a wire and filling it with a dollop of 5200, what is the best electrical connection for a thru roof or thru hull?
I have seen a couple mechanical coupling types but I can't find a place to buy them.

I have some cheap plastic ones that I know will either break or not work once I take them apart. I like those clams.
RIhound...Let your father-in-law know I am very happy with Hamilton's shipping. Everything is super well packed and gets here pronto.
I ordered the comm fishing offshore flare kit/box from them and Let me say that thing was packed like it was a nuclear reactor! Boxes within boxes in metal cans and again in multiple exterior boxes...It was unreal the amount of packing material used to ship flares

Thats if it doesn't have a connector on the end.
Most warranties are voided if you cut the cable.
Believe me, I've been in some fights over that one.
