Hi all I wont even dare mention the portable generator thing here! What im curious about is built-in generators right from Sea Ray. I am considering a move up to a 280 Sundancer (thanks to Jeremy haha!) and there are a few boats im considering. One of them has the built-in generator option from Sea Ray. With all the concerns and talk about CO poisoning, im curious as to how safe these genset options from the dealer are. I know they are built specifically for boats and are vented and have special exhaust system setups. My question is this: Are they safe enough to consider being used overnighting with my family on a mooring or on the hook? The admiral likes the thought of using the A/C on hot summer nights away from the dock but if the reward is compromised by fumes or CO, then i say we sweat or stay hooked up to shore power. Is the 280 big enough to use a built-in generator from Sea Ray safely? Thanks in advance.
