I’ve been looking and this doesn’t look bad. 900w about 45 lb and will power mist small things. Seeing my merc 115 has only about a 10a charging system, it doesn’t leave much room for extras. I figure this would do the job. Pack this with a 20a battery charger, and I’ll have plenty for lights etc. tech has come a long way. It’s gotten great reviews. It’s cheap and I’m liking it.

So it's good for just under 6 amps continuous at 120v. |

Yes, it does say not to exceed 6.5. what Im wanting it to do is to replenish my set of house batteries that will be used for an inverter etc. not to say it'll be a full load dead on. |

Some of those things are noisy. I suppose you could put it in the back with a box around 3 sides like they do for those old outboards. It will most likely be big enough to run your battery charger and maybe a little fridge together. |

The recommended exposure level for 91dB is 2 hours. You will need to work on sound deadening this thing. |

Engine noise is bad enough but the vibration transferring through the hulls would add another annoyance. Eh, there’s others out there so I’m going to check them out too |

Eh, there’s others out there so I’m going to check them out too You should be able to make a shock mounted pad that will isolate the vibration. Surplus Center in Nebraska or one of those wheat states has this sort of stuff in their catalog. That is were I got the 700 pound rated castors for that stone entertainment center. |
