Find an
electrician freind and have him/her set up a nice dockside
approved outlet and ground the hell out of it at the dock location!!!
I wouldn't even carry the ground from your home. A typical
home ground/neutral can be a volt or two above REAL ground and
will cause untold electrolosys at your boat if any metal portion
of your boat is grounded to 'your house ground' and is also in the
water. Now you can run a nice 'Shore cord' made of SJO type wire
from your boat to your 'Power outlet pedastel' on shore, and fear
not, no one will be electrocuted!!

All good ideas.



Best wishes, sorry my english is bad, I speak icelandic.

You must be kidding. Our president never could have communicated the
ideas in your message. Your English is fine.



You have not heard the latest tourism ads for Iceland. They are a
language tutorial on Icelandic. Same as English. Good advert.

Icelandic Airways used to provide a regular service here until a few years
ago. It was a loss when they stopped. Icelandic women liked to come and
shop... as goods here were much cheaper than at home (our dollar was low
then) and we got to see these groups of beautiful Icelandic women roaming
around downtown & shopping malls.
They did stand out.


Yrs they do. Used to have a co worker from Iceland. His sister rated an 11
on a 10 scale.
