Commonly used for drain plugs and scupper holes the Rubber stopper can also be used for Thru Hull Wiring. Simply with a sharp box cutter cut a slit from the outer diameter to the center hole. This will allow you to pass the wire into the center of the stopper. Runt he connecting plug through the hole and simply press the stopper in small diameter of the flange first to make a seal. This method works but is not recommended for a permanent install. The stopper over time can come loose so check it every now and then. It wouldn’t hurt to silicone them in. more

On the bottom of the gland is a threaded portion that is able to pass through a drilled hole in the hull and tightened down with an included ring nut. Cable glands do work great but the only problem i see with them is the protrusion they create. They are easily snagged by fishing line. In areas that fishing line will not snag they are great. more

Hi, the best stuff I have come across is called "sikaflex" its a marine sealer and adhesive. It comes in a tube like mastik and fits into a normal mastik gun. If you decide to get a tube of "sikaflex" be careful as I have known the white to discoulor and go yellow in the sun after time.
I have a 1971 boat with an original flawless transom. Had to run cables thru the transom for the new fishfinder and was very paranoid about doing so. This is what I did and am very confident in the waterproofness (is that a word?). more

Drilled a 7/8" hole thru the transom where I wanted it. Using a rat-tail file, I made a chamfered edge around the hole edges. I then cut a piece of PVC electrical conduit to fit flush to the inside and outside of the transom. The conduit fits nicely in the 7/8 drilled hole. I mixed up a batch of epoxy and coated the inside of the drilled hole in the transom. Took the remaining epoxy and coated the outside of the conduit and slowly twisted and inserted the conduit into the hole making sure the space between the drilled hole and the conduit was completely filled with epoxy. Turned out very nice and I then installed a stainless steel clamshell cover for a finished look.

DO NOT cut the wire, it is a sheathed wire, there is a wire mesh around the bundle of wires and you will never ever get it back together right and they aren't cheap. more
