OK, I've been looking at both Hondas and Yamahas in the 1000 and 2000 watt
range to carry on the boat. BTW, Honda PROHIBITS dealers from advertising the
price on the internet, or even responding to an e-mail inquiry on price. Where
are those damned lawyers when we really need one?

I have thought that the best way to hook up the generator would be to take a
standard shore cord set, and have the one end replaced with a plug that could
plug into the Honda/Yamaha . . . which should then use all systems that I use
when hooked up to shore power.

Won't this work? Or . . . am I missing something?
