Heya all
Looking at starting to rebuild the 120 v side of my pearson and have the following simple sketch:
So i'm looking at having to replace everything up to the wiring to the lights and the outlets.
Before, well.. it was ugly... lemme see if i can find a picture... or two.
so yeah... lets go ahead and set the AC bar at "lulnope" and start over
In order to do so i'm going to purchase a new shore power connector... something like:

followed by a ship/shore power selector

because i have a camping generator laying around:

(which has a 12v circuit to charge batteries built in )
and this master breaker:
https://www.westmarine.com/buy/blue...breaker-panels--P009_273_003_534?recordNum=18
The distance from the shore power connector to the switch is less than 4 feet, and switch will be mounted directly next to the breaker. The generator will be hiding near the batteries on the same side as well. The outboard uses gasoline as does the generator so that works out well.
I want to put a trickle charger system on the batteries as well as hooking up the outboard charger to them and the generator 12v circuit. the lights, of which there are 5, will all be LED bulbs pulling 9w ea, and then there's two outlets in the boat for 120v ciruicts. the nav area and in the head. Some of the lights have two prong power outlets built into them.
So... does it look like i got a good grasp on the bits and parts? not missing a major component am i?
I'm kinda planning on putting that battery selector back in until i invest in a nicer one. maybe.
