Webasto Spa II Water Heater

Webasto Water Heater

Dave Lurbs, Advertising and Marketing manager at Indel Webasto showed us the new Spa II water heater.  This water heater would be a great match to the Aqua King II Shurflo water pump for greatly enhanced comfort onboard.

The Spa II is actually a lower-cost water heater than Webasto’s famous Isotemp stainless steel heater but it still has a 316 grade stainless steel interior, a nickel-coated copper heating element and overall higher quality than aluminum water heaters. This tank is designed to last up to 20 years in the marine environment. It can also accept cooling water from the engine and has a mixer to ensure that you get the right temperature. This saves power and helps the Spa II heater to deliver greater volumes with faster recovery.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
