Here are a couple options. A lot cheaper than a new cord. Either way you have to take the cord end apart to replace it.

Thanks very much Chip. I was looking at the Marinco stuff. It seem like a comparable cord new is about $175 and about that much again to ship it, so say $325, or buy a $15 plastic ring and install it. I can’t install this myself, but before buying the ring, I’ll discuss with an electrician. If this is easy to do in an hours time, I’ll get the replacement threaded ring.

I throw my cord in the truck and just didn’t notice that I was damaging it. Oh well!!!!!!!

Thanks so much.
