It would certainly would have to be in a waterproof case--which can be opened for servicing fairly easily. I would consider splitting the duct hose--and maybe putting a splitting damper sort of like a "Y" valve, so you can control or direct the heat either to the main cabin or forward cabin. It could be a box under the dinette table, with an outlet for heat there, and then continue the ducting up to the V berth. But I would be cautious about getting too much of a "hot spot" in the forward cabin.

Rick,
Considering the amount of thought you've obviously put into the installation of an Espar heater, I would guess Santa might be bringing one to you. I've changed my request from a winch to a wench.

Be careful... My wise grandpa said "Happiness is not getting what you want it's wanting what you get". Good luck with Santa, heater, winch or wench! 
On edit: may be a syntax problem with my ipad... Siri just said, "maybe he meant "changed my request TO the wench FROM a winch to something else, just sayin' Charlie". I allow her to call me by my first name early in the morning...

| I believe it should be "...to a winch from a wench." That's way you get a winch and a wench. |
