Are you talking about a Honda eu3000is? I have one at home. I can't imagine that you'd put that on a 36' boat! Where??? How???The Honda 3000 inverter generator
Yes, This is the 3000 inverter. I've used it a few times anchoring out in Galveston, during July. (necessary AC). With my center cockpit, I have a large aft deck. I strap it to the life raft d-rings. It weight over 100 #'s, so not idea. I carry my 2200 otherwise.Are you talking about a Honda eu3000is? I have one at home. I can't imagine that you'd put that on a 36' boat! Where??? How???
Deck fill caps for most Hunter sailboatsAnd now a word from the sponsor...
Thank you for infoJust picked up a Honda 2200i for my H31 to run my 16k btu AC. Had to install a micro-air soft start. Tested it yesterday and it works fine. I will mount it on cabin top near the rail that sits midship on our vintage Hunters. I built a small cradle for it to sit in.

Cost and value can often be mutually exclusive, e.g., cheap insuranceYou can buy 3 generators for what the Honda costs. Check out Ebay and I like to put the search within 30 miles because shipping costs a lot. I have seen some for under $300. Harbor Freight sells one on sale for $450.
Did exactly the same thing last season for my 2009 H36 - 2200i and Dometic SmartStart. . I will say that even with the SmartStart it is hit and miss whether the A/C will start, and if it does, if it will REstart when it cycles down from reaching desired temp, and then cycles the compressor back on. Sometimes I have to fiddle with it for 30 mins to get it to start the compressor (e.g. shutting down A/C and restarting). The Honda definitely won't run in Eco mode. To run it overnite I use a 6 gal external tank with substitute generator tank cap screw that allows for an external tank. We put the generator on a pad at the walk-thru in the stern so any fumes go downwind, and keep carbon monoxide alarms in all below deck spaces.
