    Heat on a cold morning

    Good morning to all! So, this odd year continues. Much wind and rain plus the cold is coming 2+ months early!!! So I must think of heating the cabin to take the chill off. I’m all electric so no engine to run to take the chills away. Last two seasons I used a Mister Heater Buddy. Never...

    Hey all, I'm trying to get away from the pressurized kerosine cozy heater I have. Does anyone have any experience with these and are they worth it? Looks like some assembly will be required. https://anchorage.craigslist.org/bpo/5910184407.html...

    Propane bulkhead heater install

    Hi everyone, We purchased a 1974 Ericson 32 last year in San Diego. Being a warm weather boat, it did not come with a heater however, now that it lives in the Pacific Northwest a heater is a necessity! Our original plan was to install a Dickinson diesel bulkhead heater however, after...

    Heater exhaust

    I am about to install my new heater ( a force 10 propane) to the bulkhead between the main cabin and the head of my 35-2. As I look at it I can see the simple and least destructive way to route the exhaust would be to run it out through the hatch instead of punching a hole in the roof. The...

    Replace the water heater

    I was fixing a small leak in my water system this past weekend and got to thinking about the hot water heater in my E32-III (1987). It almost looks like the boat was built around it! Now, I'm not having any problems with the water heater now but someday I maybe have to replace it. How do...

    Diesel Cabin Heater

    We would like to install a diesel cabin heater and read with great interest an article we found here (or linked here) called "Sealing Deck Penetrations to prevent core rot" It was very good advice with regard to screw holes, but we are needing a 3" hole in our deck to accommodate a diesel cabin...

    Hi, I would like to install an ESPAR heater in my 1988 Ericson 38-200. I would prefer, but I'm open to other ideas, to install the heater in the starboard cockpit locker or in the aft locker. I was planning to run the exhaust out the stern, or possibly near the engine exhaust. I would prefer...

    Dickinson Newport propane heater installed!

    Well, here you all go. I did it, the Dickinson was installed last week and tested just this weekend. The actual stove installation was pretty simple once you figure out where it will fit and cut the hole in the cabin top. That is a bit nerve racking though. I figure the whole thing was...

    Background: I discovered a trickle of water coming from under the fuel tank when the engine is running. It starts about one minute or so after the engine is started and it will slowly stop a couple of minutes after the engine is shut down. There is no leak from the exhaust system that I can see...

    Hydronic Heater Installation - Separate H2O heater from FWC System?

    I currently have my hot water heater patched into the fresh water side of my engine and am planning to put in a Espar Hydronic D5. At this time, I'm considering plumping it so my radiators will have the ability to heat the boat (and H2O heater) when motoring using engine heat or the diesel...

    Does anyone have a water heater plumbed into a Perkins 4-108. Mine was not connected when I recently bought my E-38, & I'd like to get a good spot to make the inlet /outlet locations. Scematic /diagram would be great.

    Has anyone found a propane on demand water heater suitable for installation on a boat? Add a water heater to the long list of systems that's not operating on my E-38. Since I have a propane stove, (of course not working yet due to leaky valve) I thought it would be better to install one of...

    E35/3 diesel heater

    Hi All, Have any of the E35/3 owners installed a diesel heater on their boats? Currently I have an Espar forced air heater but I would prefer a free standing diesel heater as I hate the noise of the Espar. I was wondering if anyone had one bolted to the floor between the mast and the...

    Water Heater for E29

    Does anyone have a suggestion for an appropriate water heater for the E29? Ideally, I'd like a 10gal or 11gal heater, but space limitations the port locker (really the only place to install the heater on this boat) limit me to a 6 gal. I spoke to a techie at Force 10, and he suggested running 2...

    I am outfitting a recently-acquired E35-3 for cruising the west coast of BC. Among other things to be installed are a bulkhead diesel heater (e.g. Dickenson Newport). Any thoughts from those familiar with the E35-3 about the best location for the heater and vent pipe?

    I have a Universal M25 diesel in my 35-3. I just installed a new Iso-Therm water heater, and it's inlet/outlets for the heatexchanger are 1/2" instead of the 7/8" that was on my Raritan. Can I just replace the hoses and fittings, and reduce them to 1/2" - or will I be harming the engine and it's...
