You want to make a shower out of engine cooling water? If you divert too much of it the exhaust system will be damaged. It all counts on that water being there to keep it from melting or burning. I would suggest not doing this.

My positive reasons for this is extra room and ease of draining and overall cleaning. I am considering connecting to the input hot water line before it enters the water heater coming from the engine. The boat is on fresh water , hence I would have unlimited volume of water available, I assume the water would be pure and clean even though it has gone through the engine cooling (heating) system, I also assume the temperature of the water to only be in the 110 degree level at best, and there is a recirculating pump (that normally recirculates the water from the engine through the heat exchanger) that can power the water to the shower wand. So where is my thinking flawed? Thanks, George Cone C&C 40 Vermont
