They are correct. You will be able to use the 120v charger but your truck can only deliver 30A at 240v.
Charge your electric watercraft while towing
I’m hoping to be able to charge the batteries on a bass fishing boat with my new F-150 Lightning Lariat. I would like to be able to charge while traveling/towing and when parked.

The boat will have a Pure Outboard System with 2 Battery Packs.
The 2-Battery System Includes:
According to a reply from a Pure Watercraft customer relations person, the battery charger will operate with a 120V outlet, so long as it supplies 15A, or any 208-240V outlet with 35A or more. The person continued saying, “it sounds to me like the 240V options in your truck will not have enough amperage to effectively charge up one of our batteries, but the 120V options you have would.”
Also attached the diagram that displays the three types of plugs which they can send me along with my order, as well as the electrical requirements for each. “For your dual battery order, I would recommend having access to a larger 208-240V 50A outlet where you'll be storing your boat (if you would like rapid recharging). Otherwise, you can expect one of these standard 120V outlets to recharge one of your batteries from half to full in 4.5 hours.”
