[PSUBS-MAILIST] MK-101 Connectors

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

More connector thoughts.
Would we be better off having penetrators rather than connectors?
I believe they taylor make these connectors / penetrators, so why not have a
penetrator for the through hull & a penetrator on the other end of the cable for 
fitting straight on to the thruster. Perhaps a combination of penetrator &
connector to get through any exostructure that might be in the way.
I am not hot on this subject, just learning.
