A good chandler will have a high quality crimper available for use on lugs/wire you are buying from them. So go in with a list of cable lengths required and you are set. I personally prefer the dielectric grease alternative to solder, but many times simply crimp without either. I would never just solder for marine connections. And for smaller wires, use your own ratcheting crimper....
