    hot water heater

    I did this with a spare 15 amp breaker with jumper wire. After 30 min no tripping of breaker. Tried the first breaker again and it last a minute before tripping. Going to replace with new breaker and that should take care of the problem. Thanks

    New water heater starter tripping the breaker. It appears the breaker is weak. I've tested all the connections and they are good. It draws 12.5 amps and has a 15 amp breaker. Anyone have a weak breaker problem?

    firearms?

    Yes I do. When I was stopped by the coast guard and they ask if I was carrying, they said if I wasn't they would loan me one .

    I started to get the 11 gal but it was a couple inches wider the the 6 and we can make 6 gal work. The 6 should slide right in.

    I got the old one out by taking it apart. The new one is square and will go back in with no problem. I did look at the one like yours but the square worked better for my space.

    Cummins 5.9 300hp

    The good and bad about the boat running hot. The bad is the guy didn't want to spend any money on the boat and made me a offer I couldn't resist. So I bought the boat. The good news is the only thing wrong with the boat was a bad thermostat and bad turbo gasket. For less than $40 I had it...

    hot water heater

    Yep. Looks like will have to take the old round one apart to get it out. The new one will be square and will go back a little easier according to measurements.

    I will be putting in a regular marine hot water heater after reading the comments. The one I have is in a very tight spot and will have to take engine exhaust off just to get it out. I still think I will have it in and out in less than a half day so not that bad.

    West marine no longer sells the tankless. It didn't last much more than a year is what they said.

    Anyone replace the hot water heater with a tankless system? Mine started leaking and it looks impossible to get it out without major work.
