Connecting two 50 amp service cables together?
Is there a connector that can be used to join 2 service cables together just in case the pedestal is just out of reach? I have 2 cables but both have a male end and a marine screw on female end.

IIRC, HUD limits 50 amp power cord connections to a maximum of 36 and a half feet in length.
You would be very unlikely to have a HUD inspector check you hookup, but in the event of a fire, etc. damaging multiple units, a code violation noted by a fire inspector could end up with you found to be responsible.
With RVs and campgrounds I can't envision that ever being possible and even if it were I seriously doubt this would fall under any kind of code enforcement to start with. I sure would not worry about this scenario.
Now you might ruin one of your cords or the pedestal from burning up a connection, but that is a whole other issue.
