Then the boat is plugged into a 125 volt
circuit and not a 250/125 volt circuit,
isn't it?



The posts at our marinas are either 30A 120VAC or 50A 120VAC. Out on the
megadock where the big boys tie up their ships, there's bigtime 240VAC at
amazing amperage, but the boats in this thread are all single phase 120VAC,
mostly 30A, little sailboats and power boats with minimal AC power systems,
not megayachts or ships-of-the-line, so your point is....well....pointless?
