Post US Yacht to Europe
Hello

Looking to ship my US made lazzara to Europe for use this summer. It is wired for USA at 60 hertz. Other than just staying on generator the whole time any suggestions on what I can buy to adapt to 50hzt? Limited room in engine room as you can imagine.

Re: US Yacht to Europe
We just dealt with the 60-50 change - things run a bit slower - we have a 3,000w transformer and use our invertor - worked for 6 years so far

We do the same as Chuck, run off the inverter or generator.

Re: US Yacht to Europe
A big 220v battery charger and inverter sufficient to the loads is a nice option as it feeds both the correct voltage and hertz.
