Firstly where do you put the generator when it;s running?
Does it need some sort of heat insulation underneath to protect the deck?
Do you ever leave it run whilst (temporarily) unattended? (eg go for a walk/fish/explore for an hour within eyeshot of the boat). Anyone game to admit doing this?

Just sits on the back deck, with adapter running up to a 30-amp shore power receptacle. No heat insulation underneath, but exhaust pointing away from the boat. Only running while I am on the boat. Probably would be OK to leave it running, but why take a chance?
