Windlass cable connectors

[thinwater]

The windlass is/will be a Cayman 88/1000W.

The cables (3: +/+/-) are routed from a solenoid ~2m away in a dry box in the forepeak cabin.
They should connect to the windlass cables (6mm diameter on the outer sleeves) that run into the windlass itself (~50cm).

The original, factory arrangement, was a set of 3 independent connectors that had all but corroded away (in a waterproof box).

Thanks for directing be away from the "screws in pipe" arrangement. What are the alternatives you recommend?

Would you, like Stemar, recommend rerouting new cables from the windlass to the solenoid?

Obviously, the box was not properly sealed. The concept is probably OK, just poorly executed. Better sealing and grease on the contact points.

As Paul has pointed out, we need the whole picture. As a reference point, the cables to submersible well pumps, lift station pumps, and industrial sump pumps are spliced many, many feet under water. It's all in the details.
