Hummingbird has plastic plugs for all your unused connectors. They will send them to you for free if you ask. A little dialetric grease on the unused plugs and a piece of Gorilla Tape would probably work just as well.

That makes it easy!

That seems easy enough! Nobody at the shops even mentioned rubber plugs (I was thinking...why dont they make rubber plugs to cover that!?!?)

Thanks for the input!

My Hummingbird's got only a straight dark thin line running down the middle of the screen after it's been powered up. The things brand new and only lightly salt sprayed. It's hooked up to AA battery's. Any ideas? Does anyone bench test locally?

I have a Garmin that has an extra plug in the back that I figured I would never use, so i filled the whole thing with goop. No corrosion, no worries, no chance of me ever being able to use an external antenna if i ever did want to
