- erik_seaberg 9y agoWorking on a ship without power is like working in a basement during a blackout. Either you hook up to shorepower or you keep your genset running and everyone else near the dock has to deal with the smoke and noise.
- gamblor956 9y agoNo, a normal ship. To minimize pollution, most ports now require cargo ships to run their electrical systems off of harbor power while docked (instead of using the ship's own diesel generators).
