Overview - Interior Systems

Here is a look inside the seat that contains the heat and A/C unit. It is made my Mermaid and is 16,000 BTU. The intake is at the lower edge of the picture and the only outlet is at the right edge of the picture. Compressor, coils, and relay are all in here. Raw water intake, screen, and pump are all under the port aft bunk.
Here's a look underneath the aft port bunk. In here is a 30 gallon freshwater tank. In the foreground is the 6gal. water heater (engine and 110V). Also underneath here is the raw water intake, filter, and pump for the A/C unit. The freshwater pump is in here also (the black thing strapped to the side of the tank support).

This is what is uner the starboard berth. You can see one of the two 30 gal. freshwater tanks (with the pink-stuff inside). Inboard of the tank is the raw water intake for the engine and its associated strainer.

Here is a look at the battery compartment. My boat came with two batteries of 110Ah each. You could fit one and maybe two more batteries in here, but the additional ones would have to go up under the compartment to the right in this picture. It would be hard to check or service those. A 30A dual bank charger and "1"-"2"-"BOTH"-"DESTROY ALTERNATOR" switch are also shown here. Again, the wiring inside here is less than ideal.

Here is another look at where the batteries are located with the teak cover on. Above the charger here is an opening nav desk.
