My 3.5KW diesel generator died last year and I’m debating on whether to replace it. My primary use was to run AC underway and at anchor when it was located on the Chesapeake Bay. Now the boat is in the Thousand Islands and I’m planning to make an extended cruise up the Trent Severn to Georgian Bay, north channel: Lots of anchoring for sure.
This is probably my last adventure for this boat and will most likely sell it after this trip. My question is whether it’s worth it to make a $10,000 investment for this one season. How much of this could be realistically be recouped when I sell? And how important is a generator that area? I have 4 house batteries and an inverter which has worked out well so far but this trip will likely be mostly on the hook. Thanks for any opinions.
