Sierra WH10610-1 V-Groove Male Boat Side Trolling Motor Plug, 12 Volt, Use with WH10600-1 Socket

The Sierra WH10610-1 is a V-Groove male boat side trolling motor plug rated for 12 volt systems. It is the boat-side half of a two-piece trolling motor electrical connection, designed to be wired into the boat's onboard power leads so the trolling motor can be quickly connected and disconnected without splicing wires each time the motor is mounted or removed. The plug comes with two 6 inch, 8 gauge wire leads already fitted with butt connectors, so it can be spliced directly into the existing boat wiring using a standard crimp tool.

This plug is the male, boat-side connector and is designed to mate with Sierra's WH10600-1 V-Groove female motor side trolling motor socket, which is sold separately and mounts on the trolling motor itself. Together the two halves form a keyed V-groove connection that only fits together one way, preventing reversed polarity when reconnecting the motor. The plug body is molded from durable plastic and rubber for use in a wet marine environment, and is finished in black.

This is a 12 volt rated connector intended for single-battery trolling motor setups. Boaters use it when rigging a new trolling motor power connection or replacing a worn or damaged boat-side plug on an existing setup.
