Reconditioning/upgrading the Mineroff /Marantz PMD620 hydrophone system with a Curt 2V SLA deep charge battery in Pelican box with converter to 5V.

Glue/sealant for the nylon wire entry fitting for the spray skirt was first, silicone. Silicone came loose at the wire surfaces thru movement.

Locktite has a new row at Home Depot with:

This adhesive shows promise for a relatively durable nylon fitiing/wire insulation coating sealant/adhesive.

The bags I’m using are ‘obsolete.’

A new bag for spray skirt GPS and recorder use has a urethane cover not vinyl which is probably a nrew glue game with the fitting to bag adhesive.

Here’s a photo link into Picasa:

When the systems are in I’ll post here or in SK Forums.
