Delay on timer relay for AC power supplies

I reckon that I need to let the genset run for a few seconds before
taking power from it. I was therefore thinking of using a delay on
timer to break the shore power and inverter contactor coil circuits 60
seconds after Mrs has made the genset switch, thereby switching the
generator power supply to the AC panel.

Any comments??

Sounds overly complex to me. Remote generator start is fine, I assume
you will have remote stop also?

My boat has a rotary transfer switch to go from shore power, to gen
set, to inverter, to off. Works fine, very simple to install and use.
My wife has no issues with it and she is not very technically
inclined.

Something like the Krause and Naimer C42A281 would do the job:
