Tony Brooks Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Look at http://www.safeshoremarine.com/ I am not recommending them, just pointing you to their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggs Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 http://galvanic-isolator.co.uk Might have what you want. This is not a recommendation. But, you do not have to have a Paypal account. (in fact this applies to most suppliers, a credit or debit card is normally an option) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterDHS Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Most isolators are easy to diy fit BUT most boats do not have clear/logical/safe wiring. We have all done a short-term fix at some time, forgetting the consequences. I would therefore strongly recommend that you get a competant marine sparks to fit it.

Obviously if the op is not completely happy then getting someone may be sensible. But I think your being somewhat alarmist with your sweeping statement that implies all boats are electrically complex or poorly wired and beyond the wit of Diyers. The link Tony provided has a GI that requires no tools or electrical knowledge whatsoever to fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneCruiser Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Hello to one and all... Just joined the website as I am hoping to to be the happy owner of a nice shiny ship in the next week or so.. Here in lies my question that hopefully you nice people will be able to assist with... I will be getting a Galvanic Isolator fitted once I have bought said boat.. Am due to be moored initially for the winter in a marina.. Might not be able to synchronise the timings and might not have said instrument by the time I sail into my new home.. Will this start causing immediate damage to the hull as soon as I connect the shoreline.. Assuming it works?? He has never used it (the shoreline, that is)!!!
