[C320-list] Water Heater

[Ken Geiger]

The leaking Seaward 6 gal heater on our 2000 was found to be a Seaward standard unit and readily available at a local chandlry.  You should find the model number on you old unit.  

 You should drain the rest of the heater.   You then need to remove the the under sink door and drawer unit.  4 screws on the frame.  Then disconnect hoses and pipes at front and unscrew the heater from its deck.  Then pull it out and disconnect the hoses that carry hot coolant from the engine that are on the back if like ours.

Transfer any hardware to the new heater and install it in the reverse order.

In the midst of my Spring prep I discovered that my Water Heater is leaking like a sieve.  Any advice as to the best way to approach this?  The heater is a Seaward.  My boat was built in 1999
