I decided against using the stainless crimp ferrules, as they seem to require a different tool, so instead will try to use zinc plated copper ferrules which can be crimped by the tool I have. Here are the copper ferrules as well as the crimping tool:

Will these zinc plated copper ferrules be ok to use (or at least better than aluminum ferrules) for underwater use with stainless steel cable?
cheers, Jamie
no.
no, perhaps use the u-bolt cable clamps if you can't do the swage. the clamps only need ordinary tools.
When I tried casting out nines I made a hash of it.

Not likely. Not just ordinary water immersion corrosion, but it would likely be galvanic corrosion too. Even though you are not using it for electrical current, it may still corrode galvanically.
Better than Al? Probably.
