Okay. Is it really necessary to distinguish this point? IMHO the point
was adequately made that one need not be tied to shore power. Sheesh.

Are we having the same discussion?

I thought you posted that hot water heaters
that circulated engine coolant through a coil to warm up the hot water were
found primarily on sail boats.

I correct that erroneous idea and you wind up "sheeshing"?

What's with that?

You said:

I think these systems are primarily in sailboats, to have hot water for
dishes and showers while at anchorage.

How did I misread that?
