It sounds like you are going to spend a lot of money on equipment to rig the compressor to run on electricity... Aren't you burning gas or diesel to run the generator??? You still have to make sure that your intake is well clear of exhaust and carry enough fuel to run the thing. Plus you are compounding inefficiencies. Converting mechanical motion to electricity, transformers, frequency drives, and then converting back to mechanical motion involves so many steps with inefficiencies at each one.
What about looking into getting a compressor with a combustion engine that matches the fuel type on board? You can then either run a fuel line to the engine (similar to an outboard motor) or use portable tanks to refill. Run the intake up the mast to a suitable height and start filling tanks.
Also, if that mako compressor of yours is rebranded bauer, it may well be worthwhile fixing it up. Fill it with oil and fire it up it may surprise you, they seem to last forever.
