The mains supply on board car ferries might not always be perfect. Therefore,
never connect the Electrobloc to the mains on car ferries. Otherwise,
the Electrobloc, the 12 V consumers or other connected equipment might
get damaged.

Gas has to be turned off on the ferry, in terms and conditions. Electric 12V only works when engine is running.Am I missing something here, will your fridges not run on 12v or Gas ?
YES - you are missing something!Am I missing something here, will your fridges not run on 12v or Gas ?
YES - you are missing something!
As scotsuze says, you have to turn off the gas supply on board all of their ferries.
AND as far as 12 volts is concerned - even if it were possible to operate the fridge without the engine running - which it isn't unless re-wired - your battery would be flat in no time.

Never turned off the gas on a ferry, but I only do the channel, and my fridge in my 7.5 Tonner was wired to run off 12v even when standing , as I had 2 huge leisure batteries, it was never an issue. I didn't know that the 12v only ran while the engine was running, pretty sure my Euramobil will run on 12v on the lowest setting all the time, but need to check.
Thanks @PhilG You have just given me an idea for a good use of the battery master I removed. Fit it, with an override switch, as a bypass to the 12volt fridge power relay to keep the fridge running on battery when engine off and also prevent draining the leisure battery bank. I knew I would find a use for it one day

As a genuine question, re solar power, would the lights on the decks below give anything with regards a charge ? Asking for a friend ...
I suppose if you have a particularly large battery capacity you could manage, particularly if you have a compressor rather than absorption fridge.Never turned off the gas on a ferry, but I only do the channel, and my fridge in my 7.5 Tonner was wired to run off 12v even when standing , as I had 2 huge leisure batteries, it was never an issue.
