Whilst puttering around under the hood, I noticed small cracks in the hose
that takes hot engine coolant from the engine to the hot water heater. The
hose that comes back to the engine from the water heater seems to be ok?
I followed the hose from the engine till it disappeared into the port
bulkhead and I presume it simply runs behind the bulkhead, behind the oven and
into the water heater?
My questions are: 1) how long does the hose in question usually last? My
boat is 14 years old. 2) In order to change out the hose, will I have to
pull out the hot water heater from under the sink?
After looking at the location of the hot water heater, I believe I have
already answered my second question? I don't see any way around it.
