   The lack of available inventory here and the currency difference favoring the dollar I am very mildly contemplating purchasing a boat in Europe and wanted to know is there a simple reliable way to convert from 50 hertz to 60. Are there any other issues to consider when attempting to switch to 60?
   
   Thanks for your time.

   here is a quick read, probably more if you search here and there. At first glance is looks like converting is tough to say the least, like it is better to just leave the Euro specs and rewire the think with US spec...

   Thank you. After reading I don’t want the additional headaches.
