Re: Heater

Yeah, I'm still in a T-shirt in the 50's.
I'm worried more about mid 30's and a blow.
But I'm finding out that the ice isn't going to let me out of the creek anyway.:(

Re: Heater

A little while back while looking for cabin heaters I found a unit that was nothing more than an auto heater core with a 6" pancake fan behind it mounted in a small steel box. It was also available in a stainless steel box for a few dollars more. What was nice is the fan was low draw 12v, so even hooked up to an outboard with limited amperage output, it would still work.

See it at go2marine.com.

You can make one for a fraction of the cost of a new unit.
