It was drawn to my attention the other day (just after my new surge suppressor/multiplug arrived!) that use of common surge suppressors onboard ship is dangerous and not allowed. This has been discussed occasionally on the forum, but I had not seen it and think it bears repeating for those, like me, who had not been aware. Multiplugs without suppressors are apparently still OK.   Here is a link to a USCG bulletin with details if one is interested:   www.uscg.mil/tvncoe/Documents/sa
