Depends on where you sail. Southern water or northern. In sw fla it does not cool off much at night most of the year so you need bigger more efficient units. Up north not so much. I just replaced a 16500 with an 18000 on my catalina 34. Helped.

A 16000 BTU unit should turn your boat into a refrigerator. My boat gets down to 68 degrees in Key West in the summer. A LOT of condensation on the cabin exterior.
