Thanks. Will get hold of the dealer and have it reinstalled.

bilge heater Dave, I just had my bilge heater installed. I will have to buy a thermometer to make sure it is doing its job. They attached it on the underside of the deck floor on the right if you are facing the engine. Heat moves upward so I thought they would install it in the bottom or...

Dave, What do you use to cover the exhaust at the sides to prevent heat from escaping from the bilge? Also, what is the lowest water temperature you can have to keep the A/C from freezing since this is water cooled? I am having my bilge heater installed next Tuesday. -Ron

Dave, Will have the heater installed. The local SR dealer only has Boat Safe Heaters and I will have them install this. They recommended however, that I do not de-winterize the water system. I think I will go with their recommendation for now since I won't be using the water system now...

Dave, Great job! The project looks tempting. I will take a look at the orientation of my bildge. I suspect it will be slightly different with the generator in it. Also, I will take your advice on jumpstarting on the boat heater to get out earlier. :thumbsup: -Ron

Dave. Thanks. We have ours wet slipped as well and love the sound of being able to boat year round. I was hoping you can give me some pointers of what to do. I have inquired at a local SR dealer here in town and they offer the heater plus installation for about $1000. Did you install yours or...

Does anybody use boat heaters? I have often wondered if this better so you can boat year round instead of winterizing. Would appreciate if somebody could direct me to a previous forum if this topic had already been discussed. Thanks.

Thanks. I am updating my profile. -Ron

I have often wondered about boat heaters and wondered if I could use this for my 260 DA instead of winterizing. Does anyone have this installed? I have inquired at my local SR dealer and they can install this for a cost of $1000 including the heater.

Hello everyone! I really enjoy reading everyobody's comments. My wife and I bought our first boat last year and have enjoyed boating ever since. My kids were ecstatic and we can't wait to go out again. -Ron
