I want to connect heater to diesel tank. How do I do it.  There are two free places to unscrew, do they just open unscrewing and place heaters fuel hose.

Ripster

On mine (2011 36) the diesel feed for the heater is in the top of the fuel tank adjacent to the fuel gauge - I think becausue there was room and easy access there!  A fresh hole was drilled in the tank and the feed pipe pushed in. It is sealed by a pinch together flexible rubber seal that is tighted and sealed from the outside of the tank.  Mine started to seep a bit when we were in rougher seas, so needed some hylomar blue on it and to be reseated down.  Now all fine.
