Without going into too much painful detail, we had a mishap several week-ends ago. While working with sand bag crews on the Mississippi River, the truck and camper fell into the flood waters as a road...

Garry Doesn't it say 'Retired' in your signature? Your holidays sound like a lot of work to me. Glad you had a good time, those are some epic travels(10-15ft seas good for sleeping).
12k BTU is much more suited to a TC than the 16k I installed(didn't see a 12k when I was shopping but I didn't look too hard). I took the plunge and ordered a Wave3 yesterday and much to my surprise it was on my doorstep today(free shipping). It does weigh around 7lbs and is too heavy and tall to be mounted on my cabinet door. Ill probably just screw it to the bathroom partition facing forwards about waist height. That should favor the overhang and dinette where it's needed most.
I wish I was able to fully retire... I retired from Active duty Navy, but still have three of my four in Highschool. So I have to continue working for at least awhile longer. Besides the cost of living in Kodiak Alaska is quite expensive, so the retirement helps take the extra trips.
But it looks like my next four years will have a lot of time in the bleachers.. My Freshman Daughter is already make heads turn on the basketball court as a lead player on the varsity girls team!??
As for your wave-3, I would recommend mounting as low as possible and when not in use keep it covered. I mounted mine right below the closet facing the bathroom. It's far enough away from everything and slows the whole camper to feel the heat.
Hope that this helps!
