Wires can run through the hull in a fitting made of
epoxy and metal, say stainless steel, brass or aluminum. But, there
are off the shelf connectors for exactly this purpose.
Contact Minnkota for the depth
resistance.

seal
so what is the best way to mount these trolling motors yall like to
use. they must work well if so many of you use them. can you slide them into a
port in the back and seal the motor to the hull using a rubber coupling like one whould use
for pvc pipe? I just havent seen any drawings or good photos so I feel like
I'm designing by the seat of my pants. what depth are they good to?

[PSUBS-MAILIST] prop shaft seal
I have been looking through your archives of info and have been looking
for someone talking about sealing drive shafts. I have considered use of a
circulation pump shaft on an oil rig. I can get them pretty easy and it is a
bolt in assembly I may have to have a costom shaft machined by I can use ceramic seals or grease
packed seals. I have had a bit of a prob
finding dc motors that are affordable
but don't know what I am looking for. the prodject I have named murky 1 is at a stand still for design as
I am going to be on a budget. I will be using this in fresh water only at
depths not to exceed 200' and would like to know if anyone can tell me how
to find out how much reinforcement I will need any using 1\8 or 1\4 steel.
how deep is a unreinforced sub good for
with a 3' diameter. at those thicknesses?
