tioning/heating unit in your 352 MY, which
operates on the A/C electrical system, is
self-contained and manufactured by Marine
Air Systems. The system is then installed
at the Silverton factory according to the
specifi c option plan you chose at the time of
the purchase of your 352 MY . The two (2)

having a capacity of 16,000 BTU's, is lo-
cated under the cabinet in the galley and
