I'd like to rig my paddle wheel speed sensor.  I found it on the boat, but the cables been cut off fairly short from the sensor.  I found the thru-hull, but there's no cut cable laying nearby.

Any tips on what kind of cable is used?  if it has a proprietary connector?  I'd like to bang it out tomorrow but I didn't get a chance to inspect it yesterday.  I'm hoping the cable is still connected to the box so I can just splice it...

If it's not a cheap fix I'll probably put money towards a replacement setup.

My speed sensor is a Data Marine and uses a BNC plug on the cable.  Hope this is of some help.

Thanks for the response.

It was actually pretty easy.  Found the rat chewed wire in the bilge just in front of the mast.  Pulled some slack from under the rear cabin forward and re-spliced it together.   Will have to see how accurate it is now.
