Hunter 326 owners: hot water heater question

[GrantDP]

Hi, I recently purchased a 2002 Hunter 326 which had its hot water heater removed before purchase, and I decided to install a new one. In the parts section of HunterOwners, the suggested model was a 13x13x19" unit, which I purchased, but which definitely does not fit!

If you own a Hunter 326 can you please advise me of the correct size, make or model of hot water heater in your boat, so that I can order and install the correct one?

Thanks in advance! Fair winds!

I don't have that model, but you may want to try the Hunter specific forum.

Thanks Ken I had already done that to no avail. Hoping someone with a 326 will reply with the dimensions I need.

I'll try take photos with the info this weekend. Hope the label is visible.

I bought a Quick 25L square SS heater that I really like. It may be a fit for you.

Listed at $1,050. I paid $660. Seems like a lot of boat bucks compared to several in the $300 range. I liked the 24 hour heat retained due to insulation.

I can also check this weekend and let you know what is on ours.

The water heater is a Force 10 water heater. I've attached the PDF of the owners manual and a picture of the label of the tank itself.

Thank you so much for the image and the PDF, that is extremely helpful! ~ Grant
