I want to add a couple of 13A sockets with USB into the cabin. Power is provided from a consumer unit with MCBs and there is a pre-existing permanent power point which had a an oil radiator.
Given that even on the best-regulated sailing boats, the cabin can sometimes become a little damp, would a weatherproof double socket be preferable to a standard 'bare ' 13A double socket ? Or am I overthinking the problem ? Mains power would normally be in a marina only, but I do have a 2kw Honda genny that might be pressed into service on a sheltered mooring or anchorage.
TIA
