I am thinking that since fountain does put air in these boats as a option there should be a spot in the boat prewired for a unit.

hatch drop in units work great! but I do like 4bus idea, let me know how that works out... I like the idea of the portable unit, only because you dont need to lug around a/c if your not planning to overnight

I plan on removing this unit from its casing and integrating it into my cabinet by removing the cooler. It is the smallest one I could find. You can vent the hot air to the gun whale under the cabinet, and drain to the sink outlet. No water lines and cheap.

Talked to a friend last nite that has had 2 42s and says the factory installed unit is under his sink. Says water inlet is under the step. His current boat doesnt have air or I could go take pix.

I have one of those units, except mine is a 8000 btu I believe. I keep it in my enclosed head all summer, surrounded by life jackets and noodles so it doesn't bang around. When it comes time to use it, I set it in the cabin entry way, on the step. I rig up some towels to seal things up, and let it run. It cools the cabin down nicely. Not ice cold, but comfortable. Crappy part is having to enter cabin thru deck hatch. Eventually I want to do a permanent install of some sort. My buddies with self contained units have it nice. Plug in and flip a switch. Ice cold cabin in short time.
Did y'all ever install the portable a/c? I was thinking the same thing.. Pull from casing and mount under sink. Access to gunall for hot air and sink drain for water. Would are you running the unit on?? Inverter. If so how many watts needed?.
Thanks
