Snowgoose 37 Elite installs a generic diesel heater in Batemans Bay, Australia, to prepare for a cold-weather passage to Tasmania.6:35 They mount the unit on a shelf in the engine bay, repurposing an existing fuel pickup line from the boat’s original 1993 heating system.9:23 During initial testing, the heater produces smoke and a burning smell.19:41 Investigation reveals the exhaust pipe is scorching a wooden bulkhead and the heater casing is overheating, creating a fire hazard near the lithium battery bank.21:02 To resolve this, the crew removes the wooden mounting board, fabricates custom metal brackets to increase clearance, and reroutes the exhaust away from combustible surfaces.21:38 They also install a carbon monoxide detector as a safety precaution.24:01 After these modifications, the heater operates for several days without further overheating or odors.25:28 The crew also implements a temporary fix for a damaged mainsail pad eye by lashing the sail to a stronger structural point until they can install a permanent block and tackle system.26:13
