Buy a small dehumidifier, the one that's a little self-contained air conditioner that runs off 115VAC. Be SURE the one you buy has a DRAIN HOSE you can drop in the sink so you won't have to manually dump the tank, which will fill up in a matter of a few hours on a damp boat. Close the boat so the dehumidifier can pump all the water out of the swamp air inside the boat. If anything is left open, new swamp air that you are now letting into the boat (sea air in the tourist brochures) will never let it pump the boat dry and stop the condensation. If you think the boat is too hot with a dehumidifier, install an air conditioner, which will both dehumidify the boat and pump the heat outside. Leave the AC run all summer and the dehumidifier running all winter to keep the boat dried out. Your problem goes away as soon as the air inside the boat is DRY, not like a North Carolina swamp. The other crap from West Marine is just that, crap. Damprid will work inside a plastic bag.....but not in an open boat. It's made to sell. You will simply be amazed at the CONSTANT stream of water that comes out of that condensate drain hose of the little dehumidifier. 20 gallons a day isn't unusual. The whole boat will smell lots better, once the mildew and bacteria growing from the swamp air loses its water source and they die. Thanks....I was almost getting ready to run the AC with the heater in desperation...on way to Lowe's now to see what they have in stock... |

: Thanks....I was almost getting ready to run the AC with the heater in desperation...on way to Lowe's now to see what they have in stock... If you are in a marina with no metered power....why not? That will cause the AC to run and dehumidify the house. Commercial air conditioning systems have heating elements in them to do just what you were thinking....making the AC run to pump out the water. I used to work in a shipboard calibration lab where the temperature was 72F +/- .2 degrees. The humidity control to hold humidity to 50%, eliminating the problems associated with static electricity, was steam heating radiators built into the 25 ton air conditioning system. When the humidity sensors said it was too moist, the steam came on, heating up the air conditioner's output and making it run longer to keep up. This dried out the air and shut the steam back off. Of course, you'll want to make sure you have sufficient amperes to run them both. Leave the heater on 1000 watts and turn the thermostat to way above the normal setting. Run the AC and it'll pump out the heat and water. Problem solved. The humidifier is the slicker way to do it. The hot condensor heat the AC pumps overboard is simply reheating the cold air coming out of the evaporator on a dehumidifier. Dehumidifiers heat the air because you're adding the power of running its machinery and fan into the net-neutral heat of evaporator and condensor. I'm watching a mother laying dead on a stretcher next to her two dead children as her husband screams in horror over the three corpses as the United States/Iwraeli genocide continues. The USA blocked the UN from condemning Israeli genocide this morning. Damn them all....Damn US. Damn the British Government for 1948. |

That's not what the cops say where I live. It's NOT OK for me to kill off the neighbors if they kill someone of mine. I'll certainly want to, but we are a society of laws. We don't just start banging away on the neighbors with our M-16s trying to see how many we can kill. That leads to anarchy and everyone dies. Why is murder OK when it's done by Zionists? I've wondered that for years. |

Gordon Give them everything they want. Anything less than complete capitulation and the violence will continue. Of course there would still be hold-outs, even then. And violence from holdouts on the other side will increase exponentially. If the world were made up entirely of reasonable people, a peaceful solution to the Israeli/Palestinian problem could be found. Unfortunately, it's not, and one won't be. The most rational thing the US can do in this situation is to refuse to take sides and turn peacekeeping over to the UN. But it's far too late for that, I fear. |

So why do you insist on debating with a loon? Do you think he will suddenly stop being a loon if you argue with him enough? Yes, you're right of course. It's a fine line between not allowing racist stuff to go without saying anything and thus condoning it and ignoring loons as a matter of policy. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

You can point out that a post is racist with one post in that thread if you feel that every one is is less intelligent than you are and can't figure it out themselves. That is not the same thing as engaging in a debate. I doubt that I'm more intelligent than anyone else here, which is doubless why I posted multiple times on the subject. ![]() -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

I didn't say anything of the sort, just wonder why you condemn the people who try very hard *not* to hit civilians, but say nothing about the people who deliberately target civilians. Martin |
