For a Marine designation there are probably some upgrades. Stainless
contacts and probably a sealed circuit board. Perhaps some spray proofing.
Maybe powder coated vs paint and maybe more non-sparking.
Add this to a small market and you get the $40 markup. Perhaps someone
could write Vector and ask what is the difference in the plain vs the -M
model.

Ah, yes, but at Waste Marine/Boat US you have the priviledge of paying
$129
for the 35A stripped down model, instead of $89 for the 40A/100A starting
model at Wally World. Obviously, well-to-do yachtsmen would pay the extra
$40 for a chinzier model....rather than be seen by fellow yachtsmen buying
something off a rack at Wally World on the cheap.....(c;
Pointing this out to Waste Marine managers, by the way, will get you
snubbed as you are obviously NOT the class of clientele Waste Marine wants
in their stores....
