Incidently the 16' pair of wires is twisted to minimise

Nope....not with one of them grounded....

I see your point on VTS....

I'm a retired Microwave engineer and believe provided the "grounding" is
at the sending end only then both the E&M far fields (at the mast head)
should be reduced.

This would all be fine if you could put the leaky unit and its cold plate
"radiator" in a Faraday cage. But, alas, it's simply not practical so all
the plumbing radiates it to the nearby VHF radios.

Someone at Adler-Barbour in electrical engineering needs to own a BOAT,
too, so he can THINK about what would be acceptable radiation and not
acceptable radiation to MARINE INTERESTS.....making sure nothing it
radiated fell in MARINE FREQUENCY bands....
