Changing a Marinco plug.

[Sinc]

I need to change my shorepower cable. It's got a Marinco plug on the boat end and I want to change this onto the new cable but can't see how to dismantle it. Pretty expensive for a new one so don't want to damage it. Anyone know how to do it?

Thanks Portofino It's not quite like that. But it does have a couple of screws similar so I guess that's the way in.

Have you pulled off the yellow rubber sleeve yet and slid it up the cable, should be just screws after that.

Why not cut the existing cable short leaving the existing Marinco then add a standard male end connector.. This then makes an ideal adapter for any length of standard boat/caravan supply cable. The last couple of feet of cable on the boat is usually in better condition than the rest that trails on pontoons and gets easily damaged.
