The Ancor White 6/3 AWG Flat Triplex Cable is a 50-foot length with white, black and green conductors, rated 600V.
Fifty feet is a short length of a heavy cable, which is exactly what a single AC feed usually needs. A shore power run from inlet to distribution panel rarely exceeds that on a recreational boat, and buying the run in one piece avoids the splice that a bulk spool bought short would force.
Six gauge in triplex is a substantial AC feed, sized for a 50 amp service or a generator connection. The 100-foot version of the same cable covers larger vessels; this length suits one run rather than a whole installation.
The flat profile keeps three large conductors organized and close to a bulkhead, where a round bundle of the same copper would need a chase. Type 3 Class K stranding resists vibration and repeated flexing, the jacket strips easily while resisting abrasion, and insulation is rated 105°C dry and 75°C wet.
