Peggie, routing the condensate overboard is newly 'on the list'; I had thought it was led overboard. The forward AC unit is under the berth and some observation will have to be made as to its pan's elevation. What with some of the dust in the air being trapped in the condensate (not to mention Legionnaires Disease), it's nasty stuff to live with. Bilge access in the forward part of the boat is restricted to a single small hatch in the sole or by lifting the berth panels. Even so, mounting a pump which discharged into the main sump would not be difficult. Of course, simply driving the boat at some reasonable speed lifts the bow enough to drain the water back to the sump.
