While I'm at it is there anything in principle against fitting both
European Schuko sockets and UK BS1363 sockets on the same system?

Is there a situation where you would want Schuko in waterproof?
Ebay UK has 290373285510 which are Clipsal IP66 Schuko. They have a
clear front which is not unattractive in a domestic environment, it
makes it obvious what they are, the lid is snap down which easily
opens without being fiddly like many waterproof or splashproof
outlets. I think the Ebay listing is for the top only (LE, Less
Enclosure) and the backboxes are 38mm or 63mm re 56E1 or 56ES1 which
are difficult to source or costly. Hunts Electrical, Scatts.co.uk &
Jales Electrical and a few others - think RS do the backboxes too
under Gerrard Industries. The benefit is you can make them built-in
and waterproof. I think Masterseal do a Schuko model.

MK do the "conventional" stuff which you might find at interesting
prices. If you need 15A on an outlet, do not forget MK do a 15A plug
with shuttered 15A socket. No idea if there are heavy loads on a boat
but something to consider other than BS1363.
