Hi Wolfgang,
Some observations from me about your plans. I own an 54 as well.
I extended the mastervolt installation substantially this year and I’m planning some more changes.

Re: Heater and fuel bladder
There was a very sad case in New Zealand a few years back. It was four guys out on a mountain hunting trip. One night they were in a mountain hut and it was very cold so they brought the gas barbecue

Re: Heater and fuel bladder
Peter,
I used the stove. The same one we cook on. I seemed to have survived the use as a heater as I ran it for 1 ½ days
years ago before installing the Espar Heater.

Re: Heater and fuel bladder
Jeff,
I meant to use a pump to fill the tank.
To empty the tank I just stick the hose in the fuel fill and open the valve.
Wednesday sounds good for dinner.
I am heading South Saturday.

Re: Heater and fuel bladder
Eric,
How wise it it to burn propane in an enclosed space albeit with a slightly open companionway? Does your CO2 or CO alarm sound off?
Appears that CO2 and H2O are byproducts -

Good Morning Alan,

Re: Cleaning fresh water tank on my SM2K
Hi,
I hove done some research on net and there are some sailors that use white vinegar for tank cleaning. It is more environmentally friendly. Anyone have used this method for water tank cleaning?

There is not a general rule as to what needs to be replaced, but for a good overall view of what you might need to do (some, maybe all) go to this Super Maramu overhaul of the Bow

Chris, probably pumping better because you sealed any minute vacuum side leaks as well as fixing the mechanical problem with the Delrin gear.

Hi Stuart, 160 V batteries? Sorry to hear you're having problems. My boat came with 6 MV 12/200 gel batteries for the house bank and a MV 90 Ah AGM battery to start the engine and generator.
