I removed the original installed 20 Gallon water heater this past weekend due to the tank leaking. The one year warranty and installation docs still attached to the side, the manufacture date was January 1978.
As far as I can tell from the installation and location of the anode, it was never replaced during the life of the water heater.
So, how long can a water heater last in a marine application? Approximately 36 years, 3 months.
