    I believe the newer Marinco cords and receptacles use a half twist lock.
    Much easier to connect. You might find an inlet on Ebay and replace the
    ring on the cordset.

    Subject: T&T: Sealing Shorepower Receptacle on Boat-Threading it Down

    The cover for the shorepower attachment onboard screws down . It has a fine
    thread and is a pain to reseal in the morning when disconnecting from
    shorepower. There is a strong tendency for some crew persons to cross the
    threads, making future sealing more difficult. Anyone come up with a
    simple
    approach to screwing down this cover easily? Present system is to thread it
    backwards until I think the threads are properly engaged and try it
    clockwise.

    It's a small matter but if there is a simple fix I would like to hear it.
