Dennis, I’m told it will go a little higher, but not by much. Storing the boat in the Bronx has not been a premium-saver! … Nevertheless, I’ll have a swimming pool 14 feet from my stern. All the best, Edd Edd M. Schillay Captain of the Starship Enterprise C 37+ | Sail No: NCC-1701-B City

Stus-List Galvanic Isolators

Thanks to David for raising the issue of galvanic isolators.  I have to admit, I don't have one on my boat, and I haven't worried about it very much as my zincs are lasting more than 7 months in a salt water environment in a small harbor surrounded by boats that are always plugged in to shore

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

I'd strongly recommend a galvanic isolator on the incoming shore power green wire ground if you don't already have one in order to reduce one source of galvanic corrosion. Safest approach is to not connect to shore power and keep the batteries topped up with solar cells, but if you want to run

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

More slip advice: You probably all know to disconnect power at the dock outlet, not the boat. Never leave a power cord where it can be live and fall into the water. Also, disconnect shore power before starting the engine as the engine alternator will generate volts that may damage the charger.

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

Hi Edd, Down here in Florida it is very important to keep the air conditioning in dehumidify mode to reduce the tendency for mildew.  Thus, you'll need to be plugged in to shore power.  As for refrigeration, yes, we keep that running as well.  Overall we run an electric bill of +/-

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

I unplug my shore power whenever I'm away from the boat. I don't have refrigeration and I have AGM batteries which hold their charge for a long time. I buy cold beer on the way to the boat and a bag of ice and I'm good for the weekend. I added air conditioning but I never intend to add

Edd, Congrats on the slip. I've kept Touche's shore power active and the battery charger activated for 20 years with little issues. Touche' does have a Newmar GI-30 galvanic isolator. I've run one or two 120 VAC fan powered air dryers 24/7. For the past two years, I've kept the refrigeration

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

If you have a charger that senses the batteries' charge, you'll do no harm if you keep it on all the time. I keep my charger and refrigeration on all the time. The power for them are not routed through the master switch. The rest of the boat is powered off. I pay a fixed amount for electricity,

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

If a shore power battery charger is on continuously, things can go south in a hurry: Many years ago I did this and it almost ended up very badly as in a boat fire. My float switch got stuck in the up position, which had the bilge pump running continuously, draining the batteries.  My shore

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

I am plugged in at the dock all the time. I have not experienced any downsides, although I understand that stray current can cause both galvanic problems and health hazards for swimmers. Make sure the electrical connections are solid and everything is up to code (boat and shore). I remember

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

The new electrical code requires GFI breakers at every pedestal that trip with the slightest difference in amperage - 30 mA. If you are on such a dock you may have to have your boat checked by a marine electrician. The upside is that wasting of zincs and danger to swimmers is greatly decreased.

Re: Stus-List Shore Power at a Slip

Hi Edd, I always kept the refrigeration and charger up and running all the time. The biggest risk is if the shore power ground is not a the same potential as the water, then you can eat zincs like crazy. You should have a galvanic isolator on you boat to protect the zincs. Gary S/V

Re: Stus-List Yanmar 2gm starter problem

Just a word of caution – the automotive starters (and alternators) are not necessarily the same (even if quite compatible). The marine versions are better protected – from sparking etc. and from water/humidity. Sometimes it is worth to pay for the marinised version. Marek Sent from
