Mains to Skylla-i charger

Can the Skylla-i charger use modified mains power?

The marina’s available shore power is 110v 60Hz.

My boat is wired as 220v 50Hz.

Normally I don’t plug in to shore power if they don’t have 220v 50Hz. Here, someone has handed me a custom-made power adapter that takes the shore power and puts 110v on the line and neutral conductors. So, neutral to ground measures 120v, as does line to ground, and 220v line to neutral.

My limited understanding gives me pause to use this custom adapter because I think the Skylla-i expects zero volts across its neutral to ground conductors.

Is the custom adapter a no-no? I worry it could damage my charger (and other items on my boat).

Thanks everyone.
