If he has access to 220/240 shore power, then perhaps a 2:1 step down

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong because I'm about to
electrocute myself but I understand that if the stepdown is an
isolation transformer (ie neither output leg is grounded) you can use
120v tools safely. Acually it doesn't have to be a stepdown, it can be
any isolation transformer.
