There is a kickstarter for very portable ac unit called the cool breeze. Has it's own lithium ion batteries or runs off house batteries. I have a 30-1 and it might help the lady of the ship.
BTW Edd, I'm out of Evers Seaplane Base right across from you on mainland Bronx. bxcvf Destrier ________________________________ From: CnC-List <cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com> on behalf of Edd Schillay via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Sent: Friday, August 19, 2016 4:07:47 PM To: C&C List Cc: Edd Schillay Subject: Stus-List Portable Air Conditioner -- Anyone try it? Listers, We've had some really hot days up here in the Northeast and the Admiral is thinking air conditioning. I don't really want to go through the expense of installing a marine air conditioner and through-hull valves, but I have been hearing stories of boaters putting one of those portable AC units on board with the exhaust hose going out through a hatch. I would probably stick with an 7,000-8,000 BTU using drawing 7-9 amps. The specs say that can cool 250 square feet, which I think would make the inside of a boat cabin quite comfortable. Obviously would only be used during shore power or while the engine is running (I have a high-amp alternator and a great inverter on board). Has anyone done this? Any thoughts?
