Great thing about our lake is that current is a non-factor. So the boat just points into the wind. I was assuming I should run the blower the whole time the gen is on...that's my plan anyway.We had a 340 gasser and ran generator at night, during the day, whenever needed. NC is humid in the summer and the nights are cold during the winter. Currently we have diesel and no change in procedures. 1)anchor and swing with wind/current. If current is going to be stronger than wind, run the blowers all night. 2) CO detectors with new batteries.
You read of boats blowing up at dock, but rarely do you hear about the person running the generator at night having issues. If your boat is well maintained you are good to go.
