Could an H39 owner with factory installed air conditioning please let me know where the supply vents are located in the main cabin and v-berth. This is for the 16K btu AC unit installed under the settee in the main cabin. Thank you for your help.

My Supply vent is located in the same place as my AC unit.

Thanks, It seems strange that the supply and the return vents would be located near each other. From what I have read the supply should be located higher so the cold air can fall down as it makes its way back to the return.

The Air mover fan has "vent" for warmer air, normally called "return air""

The Air is cooled through finned heat exchanger and pushed to discharge vents at spots through your boat.

My suggestion is to find a cool air vent and buy a DC volt fan to move it around your boat.

The factory didn’t install A/C units, ducting or vents. It was typically all done at commissioning so there will b variability in how/where installed depending on who did it.
Ahhh, that makes a lot of sense and explains why I can't find a standard answer to the question.
