Chuck Late to this party but- FWIW our 35-3 has a 9k unit from mermaid (they are local so no shipping...). It is intentionally undersized so we can run it off our Honda 2000 at anchor. Great once the sun goes down but it loses the battle mid afternoon in the 90's. The 9k also fit better in the hanging locker where we could vent easily to the v-berth and main cabin. Pay attention to the space needed for all the air handling bits and pieces. The larger the unit the larger those bits and pieces need to be. We spent the xtra for the reverse cycle. It adds a lot of flexibility though we consider 50's to be winter here. (sunny and headed to 80 today....) Don't know about others but the thermostats we started with never lasted more than a year or 2- just not marine ready. So I finally just bought a Honeywell hockey puck and as it is all mechanical it has been just fine. Kim Brown Trust Me!!! 35-3
