A precautionary tale or shore power near disaster.

[QUOTE="agprice22,...what better technology exists, or where are we headed, when it comes to transferring power to vessels? Is there something that is a few years away?

Yes !!! Lithium crystals in mini-photon torpedoes. One quick application, and you'll never have to worry about shore power again.[/QUOTE]

Maybe that's my problem. I've been trying to use a Beryllium Sphere!

It is the hidden cost of a bigger boat. I have fore and aft dual shore power connections, 2 X 30 Amp 120 VAC. Small is Beautiful, n'est pas?

Amen to that, brother!

Ditto here. Our boat was built with dual 30amp shore power connections, but I have always managed power consumption to 30amps. Both are original plugs, except the one I use, I replaced the plug on buss A as the spades were wearing our. If we were southern climates both heat pumps would be running keeping the boat cool during the summer months and drawing 60amps of service.
