But wiring runs through there, along the port side, to the empty space in the stern. Perhaps an electrical snake, which is strong, stiff (relatively), and should be able to punch its way through the foam along the bottom. But I haven't tried it (yet). There's also space between the hull and liner, along the port side, which is accessible from that access opening.

u guy,s were bow in so not so bad as it was for me , anyway someone quietly & discreetly went on board these boats turned off their blaring stereo,s & disconnected there Hydro connections on the dock , next day when these boater,s quizzed me about it , I suggested they talk to the Harbour Master or marina crew & Police !! , needless to say the rest of the wk-end was reasonably quiet lol

"someone" quietly & discreetly went on board

I can,t divulge my sources , but I,m told it was likely the Skipper of The Fling Dutchman
would explain why nobody was seen on the marina cams boarding these boats who know,s maybe he was cloaked in a black cape !!

Hi,
In the end, I've installed it the "easy" way, avoiding pushing the AC to the galley. I'll simply connect my DC charger to the AC plug when I need to charge, and will be good enough.
Some pics of the job :

Looks like a nice installation. But don't give up on snaking a circuit to the galley, if that's what you really want. Mine has some DC wiring and a coax cable snaked through the port side to the stern, and them not being OEM, that means it is do-able. Something to monkey with when you have nothing better to do.
But I gotta ask - that receptacle is unusual, except for Brazil (IEC 60906), which is not in Europe. Perhaps Switzerland, with the similar-but-different configuration SEV1011 10A?
