New 2010 boat has factory installed Kenyon electric grill, 1300W, but no generator. Marina is suggesting Xantrex pro 1800 inverter with two add'l deep cycle class 27 batteries w/ isolator, or a marine generator. Also posted in sport cruiser forum to discuss merits of generator or inverter.
Electrical question is, can I expect about 30 minutes of combined run time from the two batteries? They will be charged overnight on shore power before using. Is 1800 W inverter sufficient, or is there a start up surge that will require a larger unit? I want to be sure to have this spec'd correctly.
I appreciate any suggestions.
