    Tankless Water Heater

    Also known as a "Point of Use" heater. I have a 250DA with a 7.4 and all the options that SeaRay could crame into the Bilge. It is a PIA to work on! I'm considering removing the big heat exchanger type hot water heater with an Eemax Marine type unit that works on 120V. Anyone see a down side...
