Thanks for all the suggestions. Soundy could you possibly supply me with web references for the weatherproof connectors. Our suppliers (South Africa) supply the normal crimp connectors. I'm sure I will find them locally but if I have a manufacturer of the connectors my search will be so much shorter. Also when you say gel-filled, do you mean the grease that you mentioned in you post?

Hi All During the week I had to make some repairs to a system on a fishing trawler. I had to install two new cameras, one was on the open deck and one in the processing factory. The camera on the open deck had a power problem and a new section of power cable was installed. The conductors of the old cable was black due to corrosion as was the RG59 screen (the customer did not want a new cable installed ). My question is how does one protect these type of installations against the weather. Even if it is for a 6 month period. I thought of using a product called denso tape (petroleum jelly based cloth tape). I installed watertight boxes for the cable connections and sealed the entries with silicon, cable glands would have been better but could not find suitable glands in the time frame.
