Ditch the Hot Water Tank?
The hot water tank in my Pearson 28 (2) is pretty rusty and has seen better days. I've had the boat for about two years now and haven't really used it since the heater only works when connected to shore power, which usually means there are marina facilities to be had.
I'm currently considering removing the tank to free up some space in the lazarette and reduce winterizing hassle, but wanted to get some opinions first to make sure I'm not making a big mistake by not considering all the consequences.
Also, I'm not exactly sure what this project would entail - especially from an electrical standpoint - and how big of an undertaking it represents...
Thanks,
Amir
