Cuddy Portable AC prototype

[greauxpete]

Here is an idea I came up with for using a portable 110 VAC AC unit for cooling off the cuddy at night. The adapter is made using rigid foam insulation board. The AC is a 8000 BTU/hour unit. The condensate drains into the floor drain in the cuddy. I'm in south Louisiana and it dropped the temps down to 66F in the late afternoon temps were in the upper 80s at one point. It should work when your in a marina with shore power. I had the AC unit hooked directly to the wall in the driveway for testing.
