Moomba newbie - just picked up my new Craz this spring. Unfortunately, coming out of my old fish and ski I didn't realize the benefits of a heater...until now.

Anyone have suggestions on how to connect a heater to the closed loop system on the Indmar Raptor? LOTS of info on here/web on a traditional raw water setup but would prefer to get it on the closed loop system for better effectiveness.

Bump - how about this - anyone have a factory or dealer installed heater that could send a picture of the connections to the Raptor engine? Top one would be fine since the other is harder to see.

I will be honest, you are probably going to have to take it to the dealer to get done. Maybe one of the factory guys will chime in with some better info. But, for the system, there is a heat exchanger, a pump, and a heater core....all these plumbed in to the closed loop system. Wish I could be more help, but one picture won't show you much. The exchanger is at the rear of the motor above the impeller, the pump is under the transmission cover, and the heater core with the vent tubes are located under the port bench seat.

Thanks. I have the heater, tubes, and heater lines back to the engine bay all installed. Just curious what the connectors at the heat exchanger look like.
