Box_closed_and_finished_with_7_way_NAS_connectors_IMG00090-20120106-1913.JPG
Box Closed with 7 Blade NAS connectors586 viewsBox closed up and ready for use. The box and cable connectors are reasonably weather tight and hence can be submerged for a bit while doing a creek crossing but as with the 3, do not use the creek bed as a parking stall. Similarly, the connector recessed into the bumper will probably remain somewhat dry as long as you keep moving but if you get stopped, well that is another story.

As such, I put a vial of desiccant in the metal box prior to closing it up to reduce corrosion due to moisture build up.

Chief instructor (left) and another instructor explaining water crossings204 viewsWhilst no one tested the waters this time (they did last week with another group) you can just see the stick floating in the water (near second instructor's right elbow). Satisfied that the rains hadn't changed the depth dramatically, they let us through - those that elected to take the water crossing of course.

Last D3 through the deep crossing229 viewsThe water was stirred up by this time (didn't start off too clean due to heavy rains in the previous week) water was between 500 and 600mm deep depending on where the driver crossed. Away from the tree was slightly deeper but most drivers chose that line to be well clear of the tree.
