High Tides is an inexpensive make of shore power cords.
My limited experience has been that you can find great deals on 30/120 cords. 50/240 and 50/120 cords are very hard to find at a good price.
I did find a relatively cheap 50/120, 25' cord this year. It was a Marinco EEL cord that was on sale. So if you keep checking daily you may find a deal. You can also keep an eye on EBay.

RV outdoor power cord will do the job.
Here's 4 wire, 50 amp. You'd need to change to marine ends. Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/NU-CORD-9456...8&qid=1501436193&sr=8-15&keywords=50+amp+cord
Also try Ebay.

In Oz the ends are the expensive part, over there ???
50A cables are less flexible/harder to handle than 30A.

Paying for an RV cord and paying for two marine ends is going to cost more than buying the proper cord in the first place.

Perhaps , but one can select the Hubble brand rather than molded on junk.
Eventually the plugs will have to be removed and the interior cleaned , far better to clean than replace.
