Sydney ..(Hilly part !) .. Australia/ Down under !
Portugal is ready for the electric revolution..
Multiple charger stations around this small tourist town of Aveiro, with many EVs to be seen on the roads
BUT.. all the chargers i have seen (10+) are not near any car access /parking,…. they are all on the side of the canals used by tourist sight seeing boats ,!
…… unfortunately, all the tour boats are petrol outboard powered ??…. Not an electric boat to be found !
They hope in a year or so to convert the tour boats to electric drive.

What connector type are they using? I'm building an onboard charger for my electric boat and want to try to allow for that connector type.
 
Thanks Hillhater. I have a J1772 inlet I can use at some point. Initial version is using the Smart Plug 30-amp inlet:

We have J1772 connectors around here too, just not on the water's edge yet.
