FYI ..... I've confirmed with two marine A/C manufacturers that their 12,000 btu units can be run with the Honda EU2000i portable generator (in cool mode). These include Mermaid Marine Air and Dometics Environmental who manufactures the Marine Air units.  A larger generator would be needed to run a 16,500 btu A/C. It appears the Marine Air unit has slightly lower starting and running amp requirements. The little Honda generator makes it convenient to run A/C on shorepower at the dock and with the generator at anchor.
