I am surprised you folks in cold weather areas don't use your diesel. I wouldn't have installed, but my boat came with a diesel forced air furnace, mounted in cockpit locker, small exhaust out port side stern area, with thermostat and all. One outlet in the head, one in the v berth, two in the cabin. Toastee!!! And makes drying stuff in the head a breeze. Bill Walker cnc 36 Evening Star Pentwater, Mi.

On the topic of propane heaters, I was always under the impression that they weren't to be used indoors (carbon monoxide). But if Andy says they're good then I'm onboard. I might get one for winter work on the boat. We don't really sail in cold weather because the boat gets hauled in early October. It gets cold, but it only matters for the first couple of weeks before and after haul/launch, not worth the investment in a proper cabin heater at this point.
