I bought a 5,000 BTU A/C from Wal*Mart and made a little platform that
straddles the rear lip of the luggage rack.  A water resistant piece of
fabric is pinned to the zipper area of the poptop canvas opening with a
square cutout that snugs around the air conditioner.

It was cheap and works well ... when there is shore power available, of
course.
