Loss of AC dock power...

No it means hospitals and computer centers are high enough value operations that their dedicated engineering staff can afford to identify and keep critical long lead time items in stock onsite. If Ancora's boat was a high enough value operation his dedicated engineering staff would have had a solution in hand too, like fire up the onboard generator.

What the hell is so critical about dock power? If you or the op did your due diligence a minor inconvenience wouldn't warrant a 50 page thread slamming a San Diego Marina for not having a ready replacement for everything they own onsite. Shit happens must not be in your vocabulary. Neither is self reliance.

A community of 7,000+ homes local to me just went 48 hours without natural gas, nobody died as a result. But this much I guarantee, the wiser of those residents will now be exercising their due diligence and will be far better prepared the next time shit happens.
