Try This One Out Denise
DeniseJump over to the "other sailors forum" and see my input on a new portable AC unit we saw last week. The responses were quite good. The portable AC unit is made by Haier America and sold at Target and elsewhere. Model HPM09XC5. It puts out 9,000 BTUs has an exhaust hose thats lets the hot air out. No condensation to worry about as the unit uses the exhaust heat to take care of that. Its AC powered and on wheels measures 31" high and about 17" wide and deep. It will fit nicely in the v-berth area of the 310. Other sailors stated it did very well on their boats. Here is whats great!It sells for $399.00. We are going to purchase one next week over the carry-on hatch mounted model you were referring to. Considering that this unit has 2,000 BTUS of greater cooling capacity and is $500 less, it may be worth your time to have a look. It can be seen on the Haier America website. I hope this helps.Bob88' 30 Catalina
