I had a portable unit in the aft cabin (on the 38lf) that would slide out of the way when not in use. 14500 btu from costco $400.00.The exhaust air was too hot. Cooled the boat thought. I have since gone to hatch mounted cruiseair. Quiet and cools the boat quickly. Bought used for $200.00Jim Schwartz SEA YA!38 landfall Washington nc

Hot…. I took a small 120v window unit and built a platform for the foredeck to mount it over the hatch with a couple of side pieces (and a little duct tape). Stuffed enough air in there to keep the cabin cool. As it came apart, it was easier to store in the lazerette.

Nor, can I afford to store below one of those Cruise-Air Units that go in the forward hatch. So far, I've found a 5K btu Frigidaire unit on both Amazon and Lowe's, and also a 12volt DC unit [but I think this is one of those evaporative coolers that requires a water supply and it's very pricey at nearly $300]. Has anyone had success with a small portable, window unit and care to share their experiences?? Thx!!! Pete W. Siren SongC&C 30-2Deltaville, VA.
