I have another place to check....make sure your starter to block surfaces are clean. If you think about it that is yet another path to ground for your circuit (starter).

No doubt the heavy cables work, but if you have a good battery, good starter, clean bright connections, and good cables 6 volt system will crank in almost any weather.
