Looking for Minn Kota MKR 18A 6 Ga Wire Adapter

[Raycaster]

Re-wiring a Terrova on another boat and realized I had Minn Kota MKR kit plug kit around to use. Unfortunately with 6ga wiring you really need the adapter for it without hacking the cable to make it fit.

I guess it’s a old Discontinued product and pretty hard to track down.
 

Anyone seen one available? The full kit is $70 bucks but just need adapter.

 

thx ahead.

Rockeys Tackle

Radio World

Or you can go to Canadian Tire and buy a Hubble Plug just be sure your plug has the right in turn plug.

Sorry if I’m mistaking what your issue is, but I was having issues with minkotta’s plugs so at the recommendation of my close electrician friend I switched my entire plug to a heavy duty twist lock RV plug. I was able to buy one at the Home Depot.

He actually switched his on his boat too because he said the minkotta plugs are crap in comparison. I personally absolutely love the conversion. It’s way more heavy duty and the wire holders are far far sturdier. (I was having a problem with my wires falling out of the minkotta receptacle which actually caused a fire in my boat)

You need to stabilize those wires. I had a boat same sort of thing. Took a piece of coat hang taped it to wires and ran other end to front panel screws. Had to up size screw seem to work.

It just stopped wires from bouncing.

I have the Marinco plug.  I believe that they make the Minn Kota plug too.  I agree with them being crap.  I am planning to replace mine.
