I know a guy who does... Would not recommend it.

Get a real set up or leave well enough alone. Just my $.02

BTW - I will have a 5KW Kohler with 700 hours up for sale in a few weeks if anyone is looking for a genny. PM for details.

I just set up my 38zx donzi with a Honda 2200. Runs great with 2 generators paired together. 1 Honda 2200 will run my A/C, refrigerator, and Battery charger, but it’s running wide open. They will run out if fuel in 4 hours. I ran a fuel line with a fuel pump, with quick connects to the generators. Never run out of fuel again. It’s not factory or proper, so be safe and smart about it. C0 detector and smoke detectors are a must.

6 k unit should do you fine. Two or three batteries and inverter should do just fine. Then all else fails use a baby 2000 k Honda on swim deck. Co2 sensor downstairs a must when running a gen

I can't find that damn 12 volt unit. It's only on smaller units like 5k. Let me search again. B back.
