You can't prove I'm wrong. Sorry Jax, you lose this one.
Now you're really sounding like Jax yourself, arguing to death a point
that is indefensible and wrong. Here's the proof that you're wrong when
you say soldered wiring connections are not allowed on boats:
ABYC E-8.15.19 allows for soldered wiring on a boat.
You've said they're in the process of changing that but have not shown
any proposed revisions to support that claim. Until they change that
standard, you are absolutely 100% wrong. And even if they do change the
standard, a boat not meeting ABYC standards in and of itself is not a
reason to fail an insurance survey since most boats that pass insurance
surveys do not meet all ABYC standards. However, one that does meet all
of the standards is practically a sure pass. Which, again, means you
are wrong when you say that a boat meeting all ABYC standards *will*
fail an insurance survey.
Now, let's see you find similar proof that properly soldered and
supported wiring is not allowed on a boat. I'll bet you can't.
