Looks nice!
I also use the condensator in both of my boats. Using the original one for the Fountain, took it apart and made up a print, then made 3, improving on the design using less parts. All have been trouble free for over 5 yrs.
I run the AC in the Fountain with it on the lift, completely out of the water.

Theres plenty of room. I piped mine from the stbd side with a 3 inch hole saw thru the cuddy bulkhead. Take one of the seats out and it is both obvious and easy what needs to be done.
Then I took the whole A/C system out anyway...

As an addendum:
I put in a second supply register, that helped with the freezing up of the unit but if it runs nonstop for 3 or more hours it will still freeze up.
If I did it all over again I would have gone with a larger btu unit. I thought 6500btu was large enough and it is, (once it catches up) but to prevent the freezing the larger unit would cycle on/off more often preventing it from freezing.
In the residential a/c world you want longer run times for better dehumidification,(smaller unit not satisfying the T stat as quickly) but residential units don`t freeze up, I learn something new everyday

the problem is where to u dump it in to the vibirth?
its all bed, ot the sides of the boat/hull or the roof/deck of the boat.
My oly though was make the front part of the seat look like the rear where the vent its, and then make a elbo peice that hooks it back into the devider wall (where the curtain is). but not sure about how to dress up a elbow there? maybe just wood, and vynal wrap it and have the hose inside... but wish it was easier.
