'99 404 CPMY Hot Water Heater leaks, must replace - how do I get it out?


The galvanized steel hot water heater in my 1999 404 cpmy (the 355 design with a cockpit) sprung a leak we can't repair. I bypassed it for the time being but we can't live without hot water, and must replace it. The issue is removing and replacing. It is installed under the dinette forward, starboard. Just aft of it is the forward vacuum generator for the vacuflush in the forward head, and just forward of it, under the dinette seat, is the forward AC unit.

Has anyone figured out how to get an old water heater out and a new one back in for this model Carver? Google searches are coming up empty. I did find one entry on this forum, for a 355 model - same layout - but it didn't conclude how to do it.

I wonder if I can remove, or loosen and slide back, the vacuflush vacuum generator and get it done.
