Before you cut larger holes in the bay doors to increase air flow, you might play around with a fan or two forcing air through the existing opening. If that works, it would be a straight forward task to add a couple of pancake syle radiator fans to the inside of the door. Then trigger them from the AC controls via relay.

Richard, thanks for the idea; I'll have to determine if there is enough room between the condenser and the inside of the basement door.
I installed two of these radiator electric fans. One pulling in from the curb side and the other pushing out from the street side. I used remote controls I found on AMZN to control these fans from the salon. 
I also installed inline fans in the 3" or 4" ducts to the bedroom and bathroom also controlled by remotes.
The fans gave me a couple of degrees cooling benefit.
When our coach is in direct florida sun I measured the coach skin temperature and it was 134*!!!!! It doesn't matter what color of paint I shot at the temp is way up there.
No wonder our AC units work so hard down here in FL.
