I am thinking about coming down by myself next week for a few days and in an attempt to adhere to social distancing was thinking about sleeping in my truck. Charging my battery could be a deal breaker though. Not sure how to get that done. I guess I could try for a cheap campsite somewhere. Any ideas?
Do you have a power inverter and an extension cord?
No power invertor. My boat is not fancy at all. I think I found a campground that can provide what I need
Emeryville marina....
Rent a boat slip overnight, most have electric at slip

Power inverter would plug plug in to the cigarette lighter and then 110 volt outlets on it to plug in to your battery charger.
Unless it’s a big inverter may not run your charger. I’ve got one to run my aerator with when on boat but won’t run vacuum cleaner or lots of other stuff. But if u have elect u won’t need it

I have a solar panel for my 24v system that I leave hooked up while pulling crankbaits in MS. Just a thought unless it's cloudy.
How did it go?
Haven't gone yet and don't know if I am or not based on the weather forecast.Quote:

Did you try Eddy Creek Marina? I would think they would be able to accommodate you. At the very least, there's enough outlets on the docks around there to find one to plug into, they also have a transient dock as well. If it ends up they're closed, who's going to stop you unless they lock up the power boxes?

I sent them a message. Their website says they open in April.Quote:
