There is a big difference from showering in a smaller cruiser or a large Dancer or Bridge boat. My 290 had a shower if you wanted to hunch over the toilet and drench the entire bathroom. I just strolled 500 feet up to the marina clubhouse with full showering facilities.
The water from the spigots was never "cold". Most of us use our boat in the Summer when the ambient temps are high, hence the freshwater from the tank is at least tepid.
I think the answer to the question is.....do what suits you best, for your style of boating. If you really miss the water heater after a month or so then put another one in.
