Shore Power and AC on staggered 35' Lightning
 
Installing 30 amp shorepower, main panel and duplex outlet in the galley, battery charger under the rear seat and reverse cycle AC (6500btu) under the sink. Tried to get pictures of installation from Fountain but they are not responding. Does anyone have pictures or has done this on a 35? Looking to see the actual locations of the shore power receptacle and AC panel that the factory option would do.

My 38 has factory AC. The shore power plug is on the port side, slightly rear of the very leading edge of the windshield. The AC breaker panel is in the front (bow) side of that column in the cabin just ahead of the sink. The AC controls are just underneath that

Call legend marine, they had a 08 with factory gen and AC. The ac unit was under the front part of the U-seat.

A guy on this site had the boat for a while, looked like a nice setup.

Chuckak, I have the same boat and was comtemplating similar upgrades. Would be interested in hearing what you find out and seeing end result. Thanks

Done all that to my 32.

Don't forget to include a galvanic isolator in your ground wire after the shore plug.

Really?

I found a picture on my other computer of the boat, it's dark but maybe I can clean it up tonight.

Provided I don't get called out for work.
