[C38] Listserve Digest, Vol 6, Issue 369 Heater (alden andre)

[Chuck Finn]

Below is a picture of my heater on the Mighty Quinn (the two guys in the 
picture were part of my crew doing what we do best)!

This is the Dickenson Newport propane heater.  I like it because 
installation is easy compared to the diesel types and it really does 
heat the cabin.  It does not draw combustion air from the cabin, which 
means I never have to worry about carbon monoxide or propane gasses.    
I had one of their fireplaces on a previous boat that could burn wood or 
coal, but the propane version is so much easier to use and keep clean.  
Probably the best part is you can get right up next to it to warm up 
(just like a stove).  Besides, my wife says they are pretty and really 
do dry out the cabin.
