Hey everyone, I'm re-wiring my mast as part of a total re-wire. I was using the old all-round light wiring to pull my new all-round light wiring through when the old wiring broke because it was so deteriorated. I now have no way - or so it seems - to get my new through the mast without using

Thanks guys for the educated guesses and thanks Joe for the insight and advice. Some sort of lightning arrest system was my first guess, but I thought it was odd that the mast wasn't connected to it... Which would be essential for a lightning system. I hadn't considered an old short wave or Lor

Hey everyone, I am in the home stretch of re-wiring my entire boat. The wiring was in frightening shape when I bought it back in October - much of it was corroded and probably original, and there were numerous "bad fixes" that I didn't like the looks of. So, I ripped it all out and started anew
