In my basement. . .
I'll clean it up and repipe it with a bypass and better service access (in March).

Scout,
Can you do me a favor -
I have the 11 gal version of that, I'm guessing yours is the 6. Mine
was installed before the deck went on, so to remove it, it would have
to go through a small hatch. Can you give me the dimensions of the
"box" and "cylinder" so that I can guess if I have to chop my cylinder
(or deck) to get it out? The box is clearly too large, so I'd have to
do some disassembly in place.

Thanks,
Jeff

No problem Jeff,
I'm on the road right now (again) to meetings tonight, tomorrow, and
tomorrow night. First chance to get to it will be a bit later this week. But
I will get those numbers for you.
In the meantime, check out this page, might have the box sizes.

If you get done with your boat and are bored, I have a list
of things you could do work on my boat.

Cool!

I'm guessing you're not getting enough of this kind of thing
at work? You're putting it to a hydro test too, right?

Probably won't do a hydro, but, I think I will replace the existing 125
psi relief valve with 50 psi or less. I'm just not thrilled with the
widow-maker under my bunk. The tank may be safe at 125#, I'm just
saying. . .

Yours heats from the engine also, right? A word of caution,
the water gets VERY hot. At least mine does, there's no temp
control.

While I have it apart, might as well take care of that problem. Thanks
