I have 2 self contained units on my Prairie 36. One unit is located under the settee in the salon with the return in the same cabinet. There are 3 vents; one in the V berth coming out of the bulkhead just below the port side portlight, one in the salon coming out the top of the cabinet just aft of the port side door, and the last in the aft stateroom coming out just aft of the hanging closet door. The other unit is located in the cabinet above the refrigerator with the return in the forward cabinet doors and a vent on each side of the cabinet.

I've only used the units a couple of times here in Southeastern North Carolina and they do cool down the boat nicely. I agree with Tom that the boat absorbs a lot of heat from the sun.
