Good point. Go over to a chandlery or boat yard. They will have them.

Thanks for the replies, I know they are only waterproof when you have the cap in and not the charger etc

If that 'marineco' are in Southampton I could pop down

At least, but then you could also get some antifoul, some fenders and a load of completely useless tat.
