I have a 32 Island Gypsy, single screw. The inverter is no working and I want to be able to run air and lights while anchored.
There used to be a generator on the boat as there is an extra sea cock in the hull. I'm not a limited budget and am wondering if a 2.5 KW DIESEL generator would be a good fit for my Ford Lehman diesel powered trawler.
My AC runs 12,000 BTUs. I want to be able to run a few lights and the AC with the 2.5 KW generator. Do you think it will produce enough power?
It's priced right at $3k and is relatively small.
I would assume I would want diesel rather than gasoline to run off my two main diesel tanks, right?
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Rick
