I have a cabinet under the sink and then an ice box on the counter top to the right of the sink. I'm not sure there is much room under the ice box. Are you saying try and put the AC unit at this location?

I am actually going to the marina next month to meet the installer to discuss what my options are. I will update this site once we confirm where the unit will be installed. I am going to try and see if they can put the freshwater intake and filter under the step for easier access. There is a bilge pump there now.
...I cant hardly recover a dropped screw when I'm sober let alone try to access a clogged sea strainer filter while standing on my head after having a few Lol.

Dropped the boat off last Thursday at the marina to have them start installing the a/c. Should be picking it up this Friday baring there are no complications. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Good news got the boat back and everything looks great.
They put the AC unit in the v-berth storage area. The duct work was ran around to each side of the seating areas and brought up where the cup holders are in the shelf behind the seats. The cup holders were relocated to accommodate the vent. As for the water pickup and seawater strainer, this was installed under the step into the cabin. They had to cut an access hole under the sink to fish the wires and hoses around to the unit. They plugged the hole with a round cap. I also had them install an in line condensate pump to pickup the excess water that will build up in the drain pain on very hot days. All in all it looks great and can't wait to get on the water!
