In researching photos of RON 29 in the Med, I noticed that these boats appear to have the heater unit which was located to starboard of the engine room hatch aft of the dayroom. I believe that this unit was removed/not mounted on boats in the PTO. Can anyone confirm that this is the case? Also are there any photos/drawings of this unit since I may have to fabricate one for my model.
Thanks,
Doug Fritz

Not the best of images, but original.
