[C320-list] On-board Portable Generator

[Orlando.Duran at AveryDennison.com]

Paul,

I used the Honda 2000 for the last two years I owned cl 2 and never externally 'grounded' it, I would bring into the cockpit, behind the binacle and fire it up...worked great, no problems..

I recently purchased a small (1200 watt) portable generator to have  on-board 
for anchoring out.
 
The manufacturer recommends grounding the generator while in-use to prevent  
static build-up and shock hazard.
 
Does anyone have any experience or how-to suggestions ? 
 
I suppose one could dangle a wire into the water to do this, but I thought  I 
would show my lack of electrical knowledge and ask the group for  suggestions.
