Hi Tom,

I'm not saying it's a good idea, or that anyone should. :-)

I'm just asking, What might happen if water got in there, wicked along the
inner braid, causing corrosion?

My gut feeling is that since the outer braid is protected from corrosion,
the answer would be 'nothing that would really matter for a 160 meter
Beverage feedline'.
