This year we hope to spend more time at Catalina and visit some harbors within a day or so of Dana Point. My question is: Does it make sense to carry a small honda generator eu1000i to charge my batteries. I understand I could do this with my engine, but she is very old and tired and was apparently abused/neglected by the previous owners. My current batteries and charging system is:
2 Sea Volt Deep Cycle 75 AH house batteries
1 Starting Battery
Xantrex True Charge 10tb amp Multi Stage battery charger
My thought was to use the small (28 pounds) generator to plug directly into the shore power and charge the batteries that way. Thus saving the engine and keeping the noise and heat level way down.
Does this seem reasonable? Are there any dangers in this plan?
Thanks
