Default Air Conditioner Condensate drain

Hi all, we recently purchased a 1999 3200 SCR and noticed that the air conditioner condensate drain just goes into the bilge. I do not like seeing water in my bilge and was wondering is anybody has modified the drain to dump into the shower drain or any other mods. Thanks for your help

I would see if you can install a separate sump box with a float activated switch. I have heard of others doing so.

My 35' air-conditioner drain, drained directly into the shower sump and the float pump pumped it directly over board. How is yours different?

It could work that way, but currently the hose for the air conditioner drain is routed into a hole in the floor and then just dead ends. I think that would be the easiest solution to just get a longer hose and run it all the way to the shower drain. Does anybody know what size hose that might be?
