Special Adapter

I think I understand what the op wants
I think he is looking for a duplicate of the RV mounted 50 amp receiver end
It has male lugs inside a shielded protector
He wants to relocate the the RV side power input
He would have this semi permanently installed midships

When "50 amp male" was posted we all thought she meant the blade power cord end

Then dh tried to explain but fell a little short

I wondered about that since he lives in hot Phoenix as I do. But with 1 AC maybe 30A is enough.

As long as he runs WH and fridge on propane.

Why not use a 30amp cord wired to a 50a Marinco. Keep using the existing plug. Essentially a super long 30 to 50 adapter. Seems much simpler. Just use whichever cord is appropriate.

Maybe one last question for confirmation

I should use #6 wire copper for this correct?

GREAT input, thanks all for the help.

The plan is if we are somewhere that requires heavy load such as AC etc, I will hook to the 50 amp service. If we have light loads I want the flexibility to use just the lighter 30 amp cord as well as hook to the generator during boon docking. This as well puts the power mid ship instead of all the way in the back.

By disconnecting the existing 50 amp service in the back, and running a new one, this allows me to put it back to factory when needed and take my hard wired surge guard with me.

I have several 30-50 and 50-30 adapters to use already from our old DP and many years of RVing.

Transfer switch was a thought a month or so ago, but decided against it for simplicity reasoning.

BTW It might be simpler to just buy another 30A cord and use the back plug. At my son's house in SAC I use the 30' MH 50A cord, a 25' 50A cord and 2 25' 30A cords. No problem with 1 AC and normal power. But if it's summer time hot we go to the SAC fairgrounds with 50A power and fire up all of the ACs. I've never seen less that 108V AC which is OK for the ACs.
