Title: Helix 7 Cable Tray Alternatives?
Post by: jexeric@gmail.com on April 17, 2023, 12:46:02 PM

I don't believe a cable tray is made for the Helix7?  I was wondering if anyone had any alternatives, recently I'm having some issues with the power cable staying all the way in and connected when in rough water.

Thanks...
