One other good thing about crimping... it doesn't require electricity or messing around with hot objects, which is very much a good thing, when you're trying to repair a broken wire, head down through a bilge
hatch, on a boat that is rolling with heavy seas.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
