Passing Steering Cables Thru Hull

[idvette]

So now that I have the whole winter to ponder a fix for what I've done.... In re-rigging my boat I went from dual NFB on one side to dual ride guide opposed, drilling 2 new holes in the rear of my deck. What's out there to make it look good and seal from water intrusion? Originally there was 1 hole that everything went thru (fuel lines, steering, shifter, etc) and now I have 3 holes. Will clean up the original hole with rigging tube and bulkhead connectors, but haven't seen anything I like to fix my steering cable holes yet. Any suggestions?

Pics? How big are holes?

No pics right now, but holes are currently about 1", enough to pass cable ends through easily. Can go bigger to suit hardware if necessary. Ideally looking for something that would seal hole in deck and clamp around cable.

There are so many types and styles of pass thru you can't even count them. Something like this maybe?

That is pretty much exactly what I thought I might want, but didn't know how to source it out. I don't deal with e-bay, but that at least gives me a product model/description to work with local suppliers. Thanks!

Stainless clam shells with some caulk/silicone of you choice?

Delrin has been suggested as well. I don't spend a lot of time looking at/for boat rigging hardware, so I find asking specific questions usually opens up a whole lot of options I never knew I had lol... Thanks to everyone for the suggestions! I will be referencing this post in the spring when I can get back under the cover..
