Installing heat/ac in 1980 f30 trojan

I am going to install a 12000 btu heat/ac in my boat. I would like to know where a "factory install" would put the unit. Does anyone have heat/ac installed in a similar boat ? Any information or tips would be appreciated.

I have a 1980 F30. I made a frame, from 2x4's that fits right into the berth section of the hull, with not one screw being used. It rests right above the split bunks. A matress cut to fit the new frame, and it is good to go. If i want to remove it, it simply lifts out.

The fairing block appears to have been ground down a little. I am wondering if the whole valve turns. I...
