We have an 06 Cape Cruiser Venture with a Tundra Fridge that works on 115 AC and 12volt dc The 115ac leg quit working But it works on 12 volt and we have shore power batteries charger So fridge works We only use it when we overnight The Tundra service person said it would be $300 to fix So...

I'm glad you guys are having a good tome .Sorry to hear about your injury DR Bob . I thought for sure we would be doing a river trip this year . It just wasn't in the cards We are still in Florida waiting for AC help. This will be the 3rd compressor that gets put in Hopefully the 3rd time will...

I would check the name, model, serial number .Then from there you can get better advice. I believe that the factory installed models where water cooled and maybe that's the problem running the AC without the boat being in the water?Check the Freon and clear the water lines out The AC needs to...

We put in a deck pipe when our Windlass started to act up It was a 400 Horizon from Simpson- Lewers .I then installed a 700 series which plugged almost right in .(needed to drill an extra hole) but otherwise works nice . But now we have a deck pipe if windlass goes south so we still can access...

We put on a 9200 Colman Ac and it works very well It actually was. A pretty straight forward install Cut a 14by14 in square The roof was strong enough it was 7/8 in balsa cored with Fiberglass on both sides then added a number 10 ga. marine wire to a 30 amp breaker I should have done this 10...

Thank God no hurricane damage Praying for Carolinas We are Still without home AC First compressor lasted 2hours Next is coming next Tuesday so no Gathering for us We have a home Ins program that will put in new AC if this doesn’t work next week Jim

We use WM boat chairs or a big cooler with a cushion will suffice.

We might be Late for the Gathering .Hurricane Dorian might be knocking on our door Tue AM . Hopefully Depending on damage we will leave Naples Weds or Thur for 2 day drive ? Jim

Yes I think this is doable running the AC for 2 hour trip there and back on batteries and Solar and engine running Thanks

We added a 90 lb AC system on our roof of a 23 venture Cape cruiser and no problem (Roof is 7/8 thick balsa core and fiberglass) WE stood on the roof to get into the boat when tide was so low at a fixed dock in Bradenton Fl.

I should have explained what I wanted to do with the solar generator I know it would not power my AC for a long time (overnight ) My friend who has a Cutwater 24 has 4 group 27 batteries(system comes with 2 AGM batteries 230 amp hours )so 6 group 27's and we were wondering if we could use the...

We just ordered solar for our home in SW Fl. So bye bye Elec bills to FPL but now bills to the Solar company which will be the same . Part of the enticements was the 30% Federal tax credit but also it gives you an inverter to use when FPL goes out and also a 1800 watt solar generator .I'm...
