Shore power typical installation

Here is a diagram of a typical AC system. I just finished rewiring the AC system on my boat including new Blue Sea panel.

hello all
I very much appreciate the great advice, as much as it all has me second guessing what the best cost solution is. Shore power is obviously the best and most practical in the long run. Does anyone know where I can get a quote to have shore power professionally installed in Toronto?

Thanks!

Thumbs up Shorepower installed

Thanks to all your responses. I went ahead and successfully installed 30 amp shorepower and a proSport 12 battery charger. Now I have to revamp the DC system!
