Eugene,

If I am not mistake, the Raritan water heater can be disassembled....e.g. the outer aluminum casing can be taken apart for easier removal from the lazarette.....or just get sawzall and cut it up in a few minutes.....a club member removed his that way with little effort.

Can't help with the new West Marine rectangular box......maybe it comes apart also and can be reassembled in the lazarette or maybe you have to open the lazarette to make it fit.

Got a new water heater and noticed that both the new one west marine box and the old one Raritan won't fit through the opening on the Lazarette. The opening is a half inch too narrow (13.5). The opening glass though has plenty to spare, so I'm thinking of just widening it up with a jigsaw or similar. The glass is thick so it doesn't seem like it will cause an integrity issues. It's either that or remove the engine (not happening. I could make the glass thicker in those areas, but I don't think it's necessary. The raritan is actually 14" but it's a cylinder whereas the West Marine is a rectangular box and is only 13.5 at the narrowest. I could minimize the damage by chopping up the Raritan, but what a pain that would be.

Thoughts?
