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?
