Thanks Dan! The O'day is wrapped up and put away for long storage, I redid the interior completely last winter including all new bulkheads, teak dinette, electric, water....may sell it eventually or give it to one of my kids... I appreciate the input, and I can hardly wait to get the 34 back in the water.....what a bummer having to wait all winter..... mike -----Original Message----- From: Danny Haughey via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> To: cnc-list <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: djhaughey <djhaug...@juno.com> Sent: Wed, Dec 23, 2015 6:36 am Subject: Re: Stus-List hot water heater
Hi Mike! Welcome to the list. My first sail boat was an o'day 22 as well and the I moved up to a c&c designed Viking 33.Ed is right! You're going to love the c&c 34! The power in the sails is probably the first that will impress you! Congratulations on your new boat!As for the hot water, I know a guy that only got hot water from a heat exchanger (just like the fresh water cooling one) it saved him a ton of space but the engine needed to be warm to get warm water. It's sort of an alternative to the hot water tank system and you could always add a tank later on.DannyMassachusettsOn Dec 22, 2015 10:54 PM, Edward Levert via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote:>> Mike,>> Welcome to the list.
