Default On board self-built Genset

Any opinon on this being used as a genset on a sailboat?


Should make quite an explosion when the gas fumes leaking out of the gas
engine never intended to be run in a very confined boat engine room meet
the sparking pickup rings of the open-to-the-air, non-explosion-proof car
alternator!

Tell ya what....contact your boat insurance company and ask him what he
thinks of doing this. I bet he'll cancel your policy...(c;

Didja ever notice how a lawn mower or other small gas engine made to
operate outdoors smells like GAS? Every wonder why?
