Well, I've had some computer problems and just now being able to check the replies to my post. I want to thank everyone that has put their 2 cents into the mix. I was hoping that their would be a rather simple way of converting over but I suppose if it was doable, someone would have already done so. I guess that the best solution would be to move around to the most ideal weather throughout the year and for those times that I'm stuck in a hot climate, then Slow2day's suggestion sounds like a great idea, providing I find some shore power. Thanks again, everyone.
