Installing cable sheath....
Got tired of hands getting cut with cable ties, so I placed my transducer cables (2D AND DI) in a sheath. A real pain, but it sure looks good and not stiff like the spiral wrap. Guess I will dress up the rest of my cables. Spare my bleeding on the carpet (hopefully).
Also installed my autopilot/Ipilot/foot pedal selector box. It tested out good. Making progress. Waiting on a couple of parts to finish.
Boat is washed and waxed.
I been a busy boy.

Tom,
Don’t you think that the metal version of that sheathing could be used to help with RF interference if it were grounded? Basically you are creating a faraday cage around the cables.

Yes, I believe it would work fine. I might put it around my TM power cable. I have used it before on industrial robots.

That's an interesting idea Greg...
Do you think the GPS cable and xducer cable connectors could be fed thru the 1/2" stainless version...
(I think that type of wire sheath gets a little bigger in inside dimension if its compressed....maybe enough for the connector)..

I don't think that you will get those connectors through there Rickie but they may make this in a larger size that would fit the cables...

Would this sheath need to be grounded to create the benefit effect you speak of...??
