[QUOTE="Matt Lillie, post: 63693, member: 84"] Re: Running a generator on a boat? I do a lot of things in my back yard that I wouldn't do at a corporate event...... It's my understanding that without a ground/neutral bond, GFIs don't work unless there is a ground. There needs to be a "zero" reference, there's no way for a GFI to differentiate a current loss without it. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. I can't find a definitive answer on boating forums, most of the references to this situation are from "bowfishers", and there are a lot of opinions but nothing concrete enough for me. [/QUOTE]
