Some testers have the highest compliments for its inverter which is
sine-wave. Its continuous rating is 1600W and, amazingly, its sound level is
58db!!!!! So, for what it is, it's very good. I have to wonder about its
longevity running 8 hours a night - if you get up and refuel it.'

This is going to be difficult. Between price, quality, portability and sound
level the EU2000 is tempting. But so is starting a generator with a button
from inside the cabin, never having to refill it on a bouncing deck, not
having to carry THREE types of fuel (diesel, mixed gas, and unmixed gas),
and not having to haul it out of a locker every time its used.

Er, um, pride got the better of me. Regardless of warnings, the first item
on the list when bringing this boat back from the dead was an Awlgripped
hull. The boat's name may give you a clue as to the colour.
