Abstract: A molded protective body member for seismic cable hydrophone and geophone sensors and their cable splice connections from underwater obstructions and pay-out and retrieval apparatus. The body member is a one piece polymeric member having interior cavities, risers and apertures. When in use, the body member is folded longitudinally in half around the seismic cable at a hydrophone or geophone splice joint and secured in place with recessable molded straps having threaded fasteners passing through each of the body halves thus clamping the body to the cable. At least one interior diametrical cavity is provided consistent with the type seismic cable sensor used. With the sensor and its associated cable and connector positioned within the protective body member, tie wraps are threaded through apertures along and adjacent the longitudinal edges of each half thus closing the interior of the body member. Cavities are also provided internally for placing lead weights.
