My guess is that either your boat or the air pump has a slightly odd socket/plug to make the two of them not work.

One cheap solution might be to go to Wal-Mart or wherever and find one of those multi-outlet adapters that turn one outlet into 3 or 4. You might get lucky and find the outlets on that work better with your inflator.
Kudos to you, brk-Int. I went to Walmart and got a new plug and a two outlet adapter hoping the adapter would solve the issue. And it did!!!! Now I will return the plug and all will be well. Plus thing is I can run my GPS and charge a phone at the same time. Also, thanks to those who offered solutions and advice.
