Also, if it's not CG approved, and you have a fire because of it,
your insurance company is going to walk away, it's your problem. I'd
stick with the normal marine alternator if I was you.



I think THAT is a very important point, too....


Doesn't the CG requirement kick in only
for gasoline engines? I doubt the
insurance company could walk if the
engine is diesel.
