Unable to connect to GKE cluster, gke-gcloud-auth-plugin not found

I'm receiving an error when attempting to use kubenav Version 4.2.3 (89) for mac-intel. The remote cluster is hosted on Google Kubernetes Engine. When listing pods the error reads:

Exception: Get 'https://2.2.2.2/api/v1/namespaces/default/pods': getting credentials: exec: executable gke-gcloud-auth-plugin not found

On my system it's located at: /Users/bob/google-cloud-sdk/bin/gke-gcloud-auth-plugin.

The best solution I've found is to edit ~/.kube/config, find where gke-gcloud-auth-plugin is referenced, and update the value to its full path.
