-- UPDATE --
Yes. I measured the load at 240V with the stove on and off and it
didn't seem to make any difference. It read 240V the whole time, but
the stove still didn't come up properly on shore power.
As far as the AC units. I would assume they are 110V but I don't know
for sure. They were advertised by the previous owner as dual 16,000
BTU A/C units with Heat. I was able to dig up some user manuals and it
looks like the units have specifications for 115V-240V 50/60Hz. The
specs had two tables listing amps at 115V and amps at 240V. So, I
guess it will operate on 115V or 240V or whatever it can draw. Does
that sound right?
The refrigerator is also 115V and it has been operating fine as well.
Thanks all for helping. I'm learning alot.
