It looks from you picture as if this is the outer sheathing of a multi core cable and all the internal wires from this are terminated on one of the screw block connection points, so just take each one off individually and label them as you do this. Also mark the two cables with grey outer covers particularly to identify which is connected to the first 3 connectors and which to the second 3. What I would also suggest is that you tape a plastic bag over the ends of each cable to stop the copper wires being exposed to salt air for any length of time as they will corrode and go green is left exposed for very long. This is especially important with the antenna wire connector that unscrews as you will most likely suffer bad signals once reconnected if this corrodes.

Koen,

there are multi pin connectors available from Philippi for the radar cable.
Unfortunately they are too thick in order to pass them through the Swan's neck.

Careful labeling of all cables is the best advice ! I would start with the 1.1. ; 1.2 .......................and then move to the radar cable with 2.1 ; 2.2..................

Make sure that all cable ends do not show any signs of corrosion when you rejoin after stepping the mast.
