Thanks for all the input. I appreciate the pics.  The heater is installed and works great.  The hardest part was to drill a 4" hole in the port locker to install the new standpipe.  I did go with a closable vent in the head and a open one in the main cabin.
Also put high temp insulation around the duct work so that some of the radiant heat would not go into parts of the boat that did not need heating.
Thanks again for all the advice.

Hi Paul:
Glad to hear that you got your heater all set up and working.  If you stop at Charlevoix again this summer when I'm around I would like to
see you again and your Espar setup.
