[C320-list] Air Conditioner install questions.

[Pat Moriarty]

Old boat and there is no floor drain so it is dedicated. The boat 
next to me has it in the lazaret not the starboard locker but I have 
not seen the installation so can't tell you exactly how it is 
installed but if I see the guy I will check it out.
