All I want is about a 1 metre of 100mm heater ducting, to replace a very squashed and crumpled section, suspect is throttling the flow of warm from the heater into the boat.
Only one source online and a arm and leg £ + postage, lots 100mm ducting out there for other purposes but none really designed to duct Hot Air.
Suggestions or just cough up tightwad and stay warm this "summer"

You need to brush up on your search skills ;) There are loads of places online selling this. For instance: https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=100mm+heating+duct&i=diy&crid=HLFU9S7IUQT8&sprefix=100mm+heating+duct,diy,238&ref=nb_sb_noss
 
Need a metre of this and a blimming coupler.
Webasto and Eberspacher Heater 100mm Warm Air Ducting | CUT TO LENGTH | 398527 | 10027

It connects directly to hot air output of the heater, suspect the only one in your link which will not collapse under heat would be the aluminium tube and that would lose most of the "heat" :ROFLMAO: before getting into the system ?
What's wrong with the Amazon ones ?

if it loses too much heat lag it, the same as you will need to do with the genuine Eber one, but be wary of lagging the first .5m, or the heater can overheat.
 
Tumble dryer hoses are 100mm from memory. You can buy cheap or good quality; I wonder if they might do the job?
No, the heat from an Eberspacher will melt it in minutes, possibly set fire to it. The outle temp gets hot enough to burn the paint off of the ally ducting if it's insulated too close to the heater outlet.
