Subject: Webasto diesel tank level for R25/OB NW Edition?

I have my 2023 R25/OB NW Edition being delivered in July 2022. I'm told the diesel fuel tank for the Webasto forced air heater is provided with a level gauge indicator. For those with an earlier R25/OB model, and if it has the level gauge indicator can you post back saying where the level indicator is located in the boat? Thank you. 🙂

Drat... just found out there isn't one. 🙁

Mr. Bas, so you purchased a boat with a base price before add-on's (MSRP) of over $175.000! And it doesn't come with a $35 tank gage? Why not purchase one and have factory install during construction prior to delivery, seems like a win-win for both parties! A happy customer and a company taking care of a loyal customer who keeps buying there products. Just my thoughts. Bob

Bob: With the troubles RT has in obtaining parts these days, and with the Covid rules they have to comply with, the days where one could persuade RT to install special equipment is a thing of the past I'm afraid.

BY THE WAY - the tank gauge I'm talking about here is a level indicator gauge for the Webasto forced air heater's diesel fuel tank that is located under the R25/OB's port side Nav seat and behind the microwave unit.

Again, getting RT to accept special build requests during the factory assembly is now for the most part not possible. In the past I've been lucky. Extra things today have to be added after the boat is delivered.

Your thoughts are most welcomed, but as I've said here, any of them unfortunately will fall on RT's deaf ears today... and I can tell you - I've tried.
