Agreed. You’re not going to very happy with that option. Also, odds are it’s not going to handling’s the marine environment well either.
Though more expensive, you’re going to best off installing a 16000 BTU (or possibly a couple of unit) marine AC All the best, Edd Edd M.

I would think about making a redneck AC with a window unit in the companionway. Vastly cheaper and easier to store too.

I say none because we will be 1/3 of our time at marinas, and she wants lots so our compromise is that we will air condition the V-berth. If it does more, great, but not counting on it. So I think we’re covered. I spent 13 years in VA so I appreciate how muggy it can be in your neck of the woods.

I have a Landfall 38 with onboard 16,000 Btu A/C and some extremely hot days In Baltimore MD it works very hard. Before you make any more investment in time and money. I would consider a much larger A/C. Bob . On Jan 2, 2020, at 12:00 PM, Will Gerstmyer via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com <mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: Hi all, I’m new. Joy and I have a 1986 CNC 41. We have bought a rooftop A/C unit that would fit over our V-berth hatch. My problem is I can’t figure out how to either remove the hatch lid, or remove the glass in the hatch lid in order to create the needed opening. The hinges I thought I could remove consists of threaded bolts that have no head—so once the cap nuts are removed from each side of a hinge, the bolt can’t be extracted. I tried a vice grips on it but I couldn’t even get it to turn. Hence, I then turned my attention to perhaps removing the glazing itself. Either approach is fine with me. Any suggestions?
