The back half on my Westerbeke is dead. The engine runs but produces no electricity. It will cost $3,000 or more to replace the back half. I might want to moor at Catalina without shore power for a weekend. Would running my engines be enough to charge the batteries? I would shut off the freezer, not run the air conditioning just the lights. I wonder if I don't need a working generator. I'd like to hear opinions. Many thanks. Merlin
