Joel,
Glad to hear you will attend. Look forward to seeing you there. Hope to hear
more about your races to Bermuda.

First, I swear by CruisAir units. IMHO, best marine AC out there. Went
through several iterations of Mermaids prior to the CruisAir.
I've had a 16KBTU Cruisair in Touche' for over a decade. Super reliable.
Not even a burp. Keeps Touche' cool even in the Pensacola or Louisiana
It helps a lot, we get a few more people.
I’ll admit it was a very long time ago, but back in the 80s-90s when we had C
rendezvous at the Museum they only counted boats and not people on them. Their
new policy I don’t fully understand.

Sounds more like the throttle cable is slipping. Our throttle cable has a
little clamp the restricts movement and holds the cable wherever you set it.
It can be located anywhere on the cable, but usually near the pedestal.

Interesting commentary on the Flex O Fold. I've got one on a Landfall 35 with
a Westerbeke 30 and it won't hold at 3000 rpm for but a few moments. Next time
I look down I'm back in the low 2000's.

My experience Upgrading from a worn Martec to 2 bladed gori was exactly the
same. Professional purchasing experience (Geoff also) and no issues since.
New, it’s an art object. Pics here:

I’m a member of the museum if that helps.

First I want to mention that what ultimately helped me get through
the ordeal was Chuck Scheafer and this list.
I knew from having actually motored on Chuck's boat and that the Max Prop
would work well. I went for the Flex O fold mostly because it was over
$1,000 cheaper
My 36 XL/kcb has essentially zero space to run AC ducts, although the initial
installation did run some from the AC installed in my starboard cockpit
lazarette--this was such a tortuous route that there was little air flow into
the any cabin!

Hi Edd,
I know this one's been already extensively covered. But.
David Mocny whom also posts (Used to?) on this list also installed A/C on
his 37+ some years ago.
He went with 2 units: A 16,000 BTU (If I remember right) in the back and a
smaller unit for the v-birth / salon area. I'm certain
Yikes!25 amps seems excessive. My 16,500BTU uses less than 15 Amps as it
does not trip a 15 Amp Blue Sea breaker.

A better solution would be to tee off the head intake to the head sink drain

"Long run" depends on where you put the unit and more importantly where you
put the water pump. Mine being under the stairs means that the head only
adds about 5 feet - I guess - of hose. Of course there is room under the
sink to put the pump in the head too.

You will want a separate shore power cord for the AC if it draws 25 amps, don’t

This is all *very* dependent on the individual boat and exactly how the hoses

Hi

It is simple. Unless you install a cut off valve in the teed line off the

the HVAC water line. When that happens you will have air in the intake line
and your engine will over heat, etc. all sorts of bad things will

For what it’s worth, I bought a Flex-o-Fold prop two or three years ago to

with the Martec was its propensity to “half open” going into forward gear,
