Al, or anybody else, we have a spare Isotherm / Isotemp 6 gallon HWH that I'd like to unload - Model 0221R, unused, still in the box.  Anybody interested?

It was noted by Kris that the hot water heater did not work well off
the engine so I took it apart and like Bill discovered that only one
of the two coils heated. This led to trying to replace the coil it but
this would have required fabricaiton etc so I bought a Seward with the
notion that the aluminum double jacket would heat faster. It does not.
It does heat up fine under 110V. Moreover Seward requires a galvanic
current interrupter for the warrantee to be in effect, Another $200
making it almost as expensive as the iso therm although the galvanic
interrupter is not a bad thing to have anyway. I would love to swap it
out for an Isotherm. As for size if you use it mainly in a marina go
for the larger but it seems to me that at anchor the smaller ie 5-6
gal will heat faster. Let me know if you want to buy my small Seward
(just kidding, I think)
