There is another possibility other than a drain.
You can put a device in the cooling water flow to the A/C unit that acts as a "vacuum" and can vacuum the condensate from the pan and send it overboard with the A/C discharge water. I forget the manufacturer that makes it.
If you have that kind of a system then it could have a clog in the "vacuum" side going into the pan.

Re: 1994 330 Carver Mariner A/C condensation pan over flowing
I had this on a previous boat as it as it was setup to drain into the bilge which I did not like. I did not have any issues and it worked wonderfully however it does need to be maintained about once a year. https://www.mmair.com/marine-division/a ... ndensator/km1125 wrote:QR_BBPOST There is another possibility other than a drain.

Yep! That's the one I was thinking of! There's probably other versions, but all work the same. I could see some dust/lint getting mixed in the condensate and causing a clog in something like that.Midnightsun wrote:QR_BBPOSTI had this on a previous boat as it as it was setup to drain into the bilge which I did not like.
