If you install the 'right' connectors, one at bow, one at stern, you

removes that weather cover, full line power is available for prying
fingers. Dangerous, unless you have a switch over to select only
one input plug.

Perhaps I was unclear on that point: I would of course install a full
break point switch between the two plugs. Either, never both.

Fact is, I would use the bow plug 95% of the time as I dock bow in.
When I travel, however, and am stern in or on a wall with a bit of a
distance to a plug, or when I am in the cradle on the hard all winter,
I would revert to the stern plug.

Thanks.
