2006 42 Lightning - Air Install - new owner
I just joined the Fountain community, purchasing an 06' Lightning.
We used it once, and so far we really like it. Not quite used to the size of it coming from a 32 Sunsation, however the ride is pretty awesome.
Unfortunately, the boat doesn't have air, so I was wondering if anyone could guide me through the install by sending some pics of where the air is installed on their 42'.
My buddy has an 05' 38' and his air is located in the galley area, however my galley seems a little smaller than his..............leading me to believe it is installed between the couches, in the center ......
Any information / guidance you have is greatly appreciated.

Good luck... My compressor/condenser, water pump, strainer are in the engine compartment and the blower/ac unit is under the galley. The factory ran the insulated lines & wires as boat was being built. I would not want to try to replace any of the components, it would be no trip to Disneyland lol. Maybe one of the after market units would be better, or a hatch unit.
