I replaced mine in...umm...I guess it was all the way back in 1993, how about that...via the West Marine in Long Beach, CA. It was a pretty expensive special order item at the time, too, but I was glad to have been able to find it. This was pre-internet, of course.

When it finally arrived there was a tag on it with a sentence that somebody along the way had lined out with a Sharpie. Curious, I removed the Sharpie with some acetone.

It said: "NOT FOR MARINE USE."

Oh.

It works just fine and I still think of it as the "new" cable.
