Inverters?

Happy Easter to all! ?


My friend's escaped Ewell, due to where we are today, and staying on his narrow boat he's owned for decades and is spending most of his time, apart from the beer, doing lot's of repairs.


Now, what's missing from his ship is... a washing machine. The thing is, the power supply, to that area of narrow boat ships', is somewhat low so, I suggested about an 'inverter'. He said that some of those ships have installed 'inverters' BUT, they have to have lot's of heavy duty batteries.


Can an inverter be run off of the mains'?  I guess that that may be a stupid question as the inverters' that I have run off of my car battery supplying 240v so, I KNOW how amazing you lot are and the wealth, (grovel, grovel), of information is unrivaled! 


So... he want's a 3K washing machine... can an inverter be worked, without lot's of batteries, to run this?


Thanks...


regards too, Tom
