Hi David

Most marinas on the east coast have 50 amp service wich is 220V.

need to rewire your current socket for one that fits the 50A

The only issue is that US 220 is 60Hz and EU is 50 Hz. All of the
equipment will work on the boat except the microwave, clothes

dishwasher and the heating acts a little weird. You should consult

expert about the wireing of the groung wire.
