Just bought a Charles reverse Smart Wye for 257.00 from marine.com. It 
was about 20-30 bucks more than the Hubbell, but I've had Hubbel 30A 
cordsets before and I'm not particularly fond of the way they mate up 
with other cords. I believe the Charles products are pretty good 
quality. The Marinco is $466 at Defender.

Oh, BTW on the whole shore power amps, just frame it in watts or KW, 
volts x amps.
Easy.
