If you want to walk him through how to rewire his boat and service and be responsible for whatever the outcome is, have at it. Not me. exactly. AND...what does the marina say about this? If I was the owner of the marina I'd definitely want it done right for liability protection. Good point. I've had long term leased slips at four different marinas over the years. They didn't care if you were Thomas A. Edison or George Westinghouse. If you wanted to change or upgrade the power service at the pedestal to your boat you hired an electrician or they hired one for you. |
