To all: I wanted to again say thanks for the earlier responses and to report
current status re: AC on Un Mundo. We went ahead and installed two Flagship 16.5 btu units, one in the
salon that cools there and aft stateroom, and one in the
galley that cools there and with the directional grills very nicely manages the mid guest
cabin and fwd
head (leaving the doors open).
Installation was mostly completed in Panama on our
mooring at BYC, with some final
work done DURING our
Panama Canal Transit -- no kidding, we were in the lock being raised when we turned the
galley unit on for the first time.
Thanks to those who steered me to Flagship. We are now at Club Nautico in
Cartagena, loving all this nice dry cold air. Both units work great. We spent a month in the San Blas Islands at
anchor and underway, running both easily from the Kohler 5K. Very sweet. Couldn't be happier.
