I agree with you Nehalennia. I will ground the green wire to the block. This keeps things safe and reduces the chance for back-fed 110 through the 12v system. I guess I need to add the galvanic isolator prior to putting her in the water. I will see if I can get one of those rebuilt models.
I'd install the proper 30A wiring inlet on your boat and then when you want to use this 30A to 15A adaptor for plugging it into a home source.
The issues many have brought up here are valid. The biggest would be exactly the same concerns raised on the Honda Generator thread regarding a proper ground. Make sure you do your homework on that. When I installed my charger, even though I had the 3 wires including ground from the shorepower side, I had instructions of running a groud to the ground block attached to the engine.
