John Francis..Question about your AC Mod?

[richandlori]

John,

I reviewed your AC mod and have a question. Where does the hot air from the AC unit vent to? Inside the boat or out the cockpit?

Thanks for your Mod.

Excellent question. I asked almost the same exact thing on the Venture 25 Improvement thread.

There's a large starboard hatch on the seat, which I intend to use for exhaust.

This requires that the area be separated from the rest of the boat, which I've partially done with the bulkhead and the simple hanging of carpet-pieces to keep the hot air from recirculating.

I have thought to add a forced blower(bilge blower) to exhaust through that, but I'm going to see how the "simple" solution works first.

If I had electricity where I store my boat, this would've been decided before now.
