Recommendation for Euro electrical conversion

I would personally recommend someone like Rykovich who is use to doing conversions, rebuilds and more.

I would be surprised if it were 220v 50 Hz as 380V has not been used in Europe for a lot longer than 7 yrs.

A frequency converter could easily be a lot cheaper than a full rewire and equipment change.

Tess Electric in Ft Lauderdale have done a few over the years and will give you honest advice as to the best way forward.

Tess electric is good and did one for me a long time ago. Lean Marine in Fort Lauderdale is good as well.

Why re-wire when an atlas or similar shore power converter will do the job. If the microwave craps out in a few years, buy one of amazon.fr. Same with washer and dryer....shipping is a bit pricey , but very easy to order and ship. iPhones or computers will run fine off 50hz.

What's the problem with leaving the boat on the inside at 50hz?

RCRAPPS - Why do you attribute that quote of your own previous post to me?

Looking at some of what else you posted I guess it is the rum typing.

How big of a yacht are we talking about here? Mid Atlantic- perhaps try Jarrett Bay in NC possibly. There's also Ocean Marine in Norfolk. I am not familiar of either of their capabilities when it comes to electrical conversions, but Jarrett Bay does many various projects in addition to being a boat builder.

There is a guy who posts on here called something like Capt Bill 106 who is in the middle of the east coast, I think he helped NYCAP last year who could well be a guy who could take this type of project on.

If the builder used plenty of foresight and standardized the builds they may have used the same wiring scheme on the shop floor no matter where their creations were destined to reside. If that's the case the conversion will be easier, access to wire runs is also a BIG question mark. I didn't really do any work on NYCAP's ride while he was here K1W1 but I did get the chance to shake hands before he left on his journey. Our shop is in the Jarrett Bay complex here in Beaufort N.C. and it certainly is a project we'd love to take a closer look at!

as electric engineer and yacht lover, would NEVER change the electrical system of the yacht ...

you can get a quality converter that eventually transform any dock power supply to YOUR boat electrical system.
a couple of years ago, a fort lauderdale company that I cant remember now, offered me a nice compact system , that makes the conversion WITHOUT touch your current cabling and systems. Will be cheaper that tear down the whole boat ...

You can always get replacement for most of the european parts that may get broken or damaged in the future ... is not that difficult as people say ..
also, 90% of the 220V 60hz, american system will work fine with 220V 50Hz european system .

Anything that uses frequency for timing or any other function will not work properly if at all, fluorescent lights do not like the wrong frequency.

I have had direct experience with trying to run a US Electrical System boat on European power and it was far from successful.

That is true, but going from 50hz to 60hz seems to work out a bit better in regards to most things. I worked on a 1987 steel 97' back in 2003 and it had all of the origional equipment, and everything seemed to work fine. You couldn't get any of the appliances out of the boat without a cutting torch, nothing would fit through the doorways or anything, so it had all the origional (mostly Miele) appliances and such. I don't know what it had in the way of a converter as I never asked or paid attention back then.

With Flourescant lights can't you just change the ballasts easy enough?

We do not have experience with Newport Shipyard, but have friends who live in the area and get all their work done there. The only criticism I've heard, not from them, is like everything boating connected in Newport, it is expensive. They're able to handle large boats and the 60' will be small for them. They are distributors for A/Sea and actually do training as well.
