How to fix broken Hobie Up/Down rudder cable for less than $10

I searched for over 2 hours and could not find a video on how to fix a broken up/down cable for the rudder on the Hobie Pro Angler 12 so I made this for anyone else that needs to fix theirs. I did find a full replacement cable online, but besides the cost of nearly $100 I couldn't find a guide on how to get inside the stern where the cable ran to thread the new cable through the pulley. Plus, this is likely to happen again over normal wear and tear so having only a splice to replace seems beneficial. I suspect the cable and design is similar to other model Hobie's, but if I am wrong please let me know of Hobie models this doesn't apply to so I can note in the comments for future viewers. The total fix was less than $9. I paid $8 for fifty feet of 1/8 inch cable and the swivel is less than 50 cents. Bonus is I now have cable for the future which is the same cable used for the skeg. Will definitely keep this in my truck from now on. I hope this helps someone get back on the water.
