Thinking of installing the "Mist-er-Comfort boat misting system under my hardtop in the cockpit. Anyone have any experience with this system? I am concerned about the effectiveness in high humidity.
 
Not a good choice. To feel cool in a humid climate, you need to remove moisture from the air, not add to it. IMO, you'll just be damper and just as hot. You'd be better off with a fan.

There are other brands that are less expensive as well as DIY instructions online.

My concerns would be power draw and GPH drain on your onboard system.

IMO, I would try one or two of these from homedepotlowes at $9 or so each before I sunk real money into the full system.

They worked great on my patio years ago. YMMV.
 
I wouldn't think a conservatively sized mister would use much water nor elec and could even be self-contained. With a fan, it should make a huge difference. They use them all over Austin and our humidity can get pretty high. Might even be worth it to rig a temp system (zip ties, etc.)
 
I think Swampnut told you the same thine on BoatUS:)
