Default My Rant - you don't need air conditioners on boats

You don't need them unless you're the typical fat sweat hog one
sees these days cruising around in their floating condos. Eating,
sweating, complaining how they can't sleep (is it any wonder they
can't breathe when horizontal - too much fat on their necks and in
their throats that stops up the breathing passages.) It's sickening
these people who put the highest priority on eating and the lowest
on staying thin and fit which always staves off the many overweight
caused problems such as sleep apnea, snoring so loud it wakes up
the dead, acid reflux because their stomachs are too crammed full
of fatty foods to contain the acid and the overload of food, heart
disease, clogged arteries, low lung capacity, joints that hurt
because of the huge amount of weight they have to deal with,
diabetes because they're so fat and full of sugar and on and on and
on. Oh, poor things, they're hot when it's 80 degrees outside. Is
it any wonder they're hot? Big fat disgusting people with so much
insulation they could swim in the Antarctic and still sweat like a
pig. They look like walruses. And, they don't see it. They ignore
the root cause of all their infirmities.

You people who run generators so you can run air conditioners on
boats need to go somewhere and lay your fat carcasses down and die.
Rid the world of your ugliness and nuisance, why don't you? You
disgust me beyond belief.

If you've ever been in a large boat with a big pair of diesels under
the cabin, you'd know that once those engines heat up, so does the
cabin if you shut the AC down. It'e even woorse when you shut the
engines down, you can easily have several tons of iron down in the
bilge that was running at around 200 F before you shut them down. Now
you've got nice hot exhaust manifolds and turbo chargers giving off
all kinds of heat. It's very common for engine rooms to hit 140 F
after shut down. In cold weather, it's great, but warm it up a bit,
and A/C is not an option. A sail boat is a whole differant story, the
boat sits low in the water, stays cool, and the engine's are, well,
little. Not much heat given off from them.
