Hello,

That looks good - was this the original setup or recall?

Hi Perttu,
 
Recall, unprotected exhaust can cause fire.

Hello Navegador,

Thanks for the info.

I have to say the Hanses heater implementation on my boat was not too impressive. Initially all cables, fuel line, air hoses, everything totally exposed for damage. And the exhaust system too. I have fixed most issues myself but there is a possibility that hot parts will touch fenders or something else when in the locker and that is not acceptable.

This fix offered to you looks very professional, I will inquire from the local dealers if the yard would send the 'fix' to me as well. Heater is used very much in my region...

Hello,

Some improvements for this season:

Navigation electronics upgrade, FC40 upgraded to RC42 and new B&G Vulcan chartplotter with nice sailing features. Compass is also moved from aft to bow for less disturbances.





Improved ventilation for the lavatory:



Did a first trip of the season this weekend and boat is in immaculate shape overall!

About the B&G Vulcan ... How does this work when it is raining on it? Is is a problem with no knobs when this is out in the rain and you need to use it?

I was assured that it works fine in the rain. I did compare between Vulcan and Zeus 2 but since there is no plan for radar Vulcan was the choice. 

Yesterday it was damp and it worked ok even gloves on...

I would like to know how this works when very wet as I have problems with touch screen devices with wet hands. They are ok when damp but when wet, as you could get in heavy rain it may not work. I am also surprised you say you can use this with gloves on, were these special gloves?
Cheers,

Rob
