Hi All, Back on earth, gear heads who read practical science, could engineer all kinds of things themselves. I’m guessing a galvanic isolator was planned, and like many projects never quiet finished. Then the lawyers out numbered the engineers, lots of paper work ensued, and surveyors wanted monitors or some kind of fail-safe device to save us all. Occasionally the surveyors would tell stories of kids and moms electrocuted just off the boat, usually in fresh water. So now the boats are too expensive for mortals to work on the boat, and they sit in harbors while, the owners work to pay for the marketing. . .
Clearly time for me to get off the dock. . .
