Selector Switch for 2 Shore Power Suppies

My powerboat has a midship starboard 50 amp 120v AC AND aft starboard OR aft port 30 amp 110v AC shore power connecions with a selector switch for 50 amp OR aft starboard 30 amp supply. I want to install a 120v AC 30 amp marine rotary selector switch with Off + 2 positions to switch between port and starboard. Found a Blue Sea 9009 2 position ("gen" and "shore") which is not really what I want since I do not want to switch to "gen", Baomain 2 position ("1", "2") switch and a Blue Sea 3 position ("1", "2", "3") switches. Two questions:

1. Are these switches rugged and safe enough or is there a better marine switch for this service?
2. Is there a marine OFF + 2 position switch without "gen" for this service?

What you want to do is exactly what these switches are made for, so yeah, they are goo for the application.

Re: Selector Switch for 2 Shore Power Suppies

the gen is just a label. make your own label for shore and shore. the 9009 is fine.
