Dwight, do you remember where you purchased the Honda generator, and 
approximate cost? Thanks

I have a Honda 2000i, that is good for a hairdryer but not the use I got it
for...we both like shorter hair and natural wind / sun dry...the 2000i is
compact and clean but I would not want to carry it too far and it runs
quiet...I can store it on the cabin sole just aft of the V berth or I can
store it in the quarter berth which is the best spot when there is only 2 of
us on board for cruising which is most always the case...very neat little
unit and backs up power loss at home in the off season...also can run power
tools where there is no other electrical...I must have for a guy who likes
toys and IMHO no substitute for Honda and it has a Dc 12V outlet for battery
charging

I think I'm going to go with one of those small Honda generators. They are
so quiet now that you almost can't hear them. I was on a C&C 37 last year an
they used it for an hour or so during the day and it worked great. We were
at Block Island and 10 feet from the boat you could not hear it.
