Hello Kevin. We do have an adapter you can use for this purpose. Take a look at the Adapter 4 Pole to 6 Pole and 4 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter # 37175. This will connect to the 4 flat plug on your car and will allow you to connect the 6-prong round plug on your boat trailer. The white ground wire will need to be grounded to the vehicle frame. You can leave the other two wires disconnected, but this will only operate the lights on the trailer.
