Charging/Tending Yamaha Batteries from Houseboat power?

[dzeppos]

I'll be at Lake Powell for 5 days next week. I have two AGM 27 batteries with a Pro12 Charger on my 2016 242. Any issues using 110V power from the houseboat to tend the batteries of the Yamaha overnight while out on the lake (and beached overnight?)
Any other tips while out there at Lake Powell- super appreciated.

I guess the houseboat has a generator? Should be fine using the 110 volt from the houseboat.

Some electronics do not work well with certain types of inverters. That would possibly be an issue if you were charging overnight with the generator off (assuming the houseboat has an inverter to supply 110V AC when not running the generator).

If the inverter outputs "pure sine wave" AC, you should be fine. If it outputs "modified sine wave", you are probably ok depending on how picky your charger is. (It's not likely a square-wave inverter, but that would cause you problems.)

But if you are powering your charger with the generator running, you should be fine.
