That's a long walk carrying a lead box. ![]() You'd need the proper cord to use shore power at a marina. Even then, it might be dangerous to plug in a normal household items like a portable battery charger. I have a light folding aluminum hand truck rated for 138 kilogram use when I don't want to have, awkward heavy items around...usually from the SUV to a store or home. That would be great for hauling a battery any distance for charging. True shore power doesn't use a cord that would work with a common battery charger. In this case it is likely that they have standard outlets for ordinary extension cords. That was bass fishermen use to charge their deep cycle trolling motors overnight. Most shore power posts will have a regular 5-15 on them along with the 240v-50a and/or 120v-30a. I doubt you are getting a powered slip for $15 tho. Wayne may stop by, he is the marina guy. I just know what I see |
