Could you please advise me on the required amp service that the 650 takes from a dockside power supply?

We are 50amp 240v and I have on board a Y adapter 2x30amp to 240 50amp, 2x 120v 50amp to 30amp, 120 50amp to 240 50, and I carry 150 feet of 30amp 120v power cord. I find very few marinas that have a 240v 50amp connection for us.
Wow! That's a lot of connectors. The one I wish I had for the last 3 days would take 100 amp dock service down to 2x 50 amp - all 240 volt. It's not a tricky thing - just need 2x50 amp breakers in a weatherproof box, some wire and the plugs. Parts add up to over $2000, and this is the only dock I've ever seen with 100 amp service but no 50 amp. I probably won't add this to my inventory.
We've cruised the East Coast US from Maine to Florida, plus the Bahamas and never run across 50 amp 120 volt.

John-o you will most likely have two 50 amp as does my boat, one is 120 the other 220. Which is hardly ever a problem for me. I have a splitter that can change two 30's into a 50. BTW Go for it the 650 is awesome !
Not that we have the water (depth) for you to visit, but we have 2 transient marinas (federal run) that have 50/125v single phase power on the south shore of long island.
