Default Laptop trips GFI

All of my 110 outlets on the boat are protected through GFI. Whenever I plug
my laptop charger in or turn on the computer with it plugged in, it trips
the GFI. If I reset it a time or two or three, it will hold and work fine
until the next time. Interestingly, it will even trip the GFI on a parallel
circuit. I am guessing that it has something to do with the large capacitor
in the charging unit charging up. Does anyone have an explanation and/or
solution?

thanks
john
