The problem is, how do I get the cable through the
hull so that the rubber boot is on the correct side of
the hull. The hard plastic bushing that sits in the
rubber boot is too wide to slide through the routing
pipe in the hull. The threaded ends are crimped to
the wire.
What am I missing?
Thanks,

Hi Mike, I have installed three. The first two were the same as yours. The third the bushing went through the pipe. What I did was split the bushing with a sharp knife and pulled it off the cable. Then on the inside AFTER the cable is completely installed and adjusted I J. B. Weld them to the cable, that seals up the split and the hole in the center too. I glue that sucker to the cable.I also J. B. Weld the boot to the bushing and they never leak. So I only useone clamp on the routing pipeend of the boot.
Hope this helps, Tommy in 76 degree Tampa
