Shore Power:    115v a/c supplied from 230v through 2.5kw transformer or via Heart Interface 1800 watt Inverter using 230v Battery Charger through the batteries.

With the 400 amp hour Domestic Battery Bank and the fail-safe efficiency of three separate and independent methods of keeping the Battery Bank topped up, the conversion of 12 volt outlets to 110 volt or 240 volts outlets throughout the boat is a logical conclusion: this enables complete independence from shore power to run the luxuries of shore life such as washing machines, microwaves, vacuum cleaners.
