Does anyone know where I can find some 18ga wire that will be OK under water (Saltwater)? 18- and 18-4...I'm building a couple lights for my boat and the wire will be exposed to the water. I found some sprinkler wire, but I don't know if that will work. Any help? Thanks
Looking for 18-2 and 18-4 ga wire for underwater?

Thanks guys. I went to the boat store and the only wire they carry is 18/3. I looked on the site you sent and they have some wire, but it's .39 inches on the OD. Pretty big for what I need to do. Do you thing I will have a problem with this wire in a salt water submerged condition? Not the copper, just the outer jacket would be expose for around 1 foot. 48volts at 5A
