How to Heat a Boat: Our Cubic Mini Wood Burning Stove is HOT 🔥 HOT! (Patrick Childress Sailing #62)

We are preparing for cold weather sailing in Patagonia, and review the options on how to heat a boat to stay warm while we liveaboard Sv Brick House. Who would think of a wood burning stove on a boat? Our boat heater installation includes a cubic mini wood stove installation (grizzly), a solid fuel burner really, and an engine or bus heater. A wood burning stove on a boat may not be the way every sailor would choose for heating a boat, but it was right for us. We show our wood burning stove diy installation with Dickinson fittings, and what precautions we took to try to make our cubic mini wood stove installation a safe wood burning stove diy. At the end Rebecca talks about why we chose a wood stove over a diesel heater, propane heater, Refleks diesel/alcohol burner, electric heaters, or other boat heater installations, for our cold weather sailing around the world. We will stay warm & off-grid in our floating tiny home!

The 4 boat heaters we feel are the best heaters for our sailboat:

1.Cubic Mini Woodstove - For heating the sailboat at anchor, when electricity and fuel is scarce we are using a wood burning stove. The cubic mini grizzly wood stove (CB-1210) nor the 810 ecofan, on top of the wood-stove, use electricity or require us to carry diesel or propane in bulk. Wood is easily found or purchased. This small wood stove burns coal too. It’s an economical source of heat for a small sailboat for those of us sailing on a budget.

2. Bus Heater/Engine heater. Free heat on the boat when the engine is running: We bought our small boat heater from Fisheries Supplies...these are the ones used by MANY fishing boats in the northwest USA...and they have some cold weather boating up there!

3. A kerosene lantern: (Tilley lantern, Coleman lantern). For backup heating the boat

4. Electric boat heater/Space heater/quartz heater- for heating the boat at the dock. anything like this will work... https://amzn.to/3bDAERP

I am writing a blog soon about the various boat heaters we researched. If you didn’t notice...Patrick sped me through this part...and I didn’t have enough time to talk about all of the boat heating options as much as I would have liked to. What’s a girl to do. Well...I’m writing a blog. If you want a boring but somewhat exhaustive write up of why we chose a wood burning stove/woodstove over all the other various kinds of boat heaters available, visit our blog at http://www.WhereIsBrickHouse.com.
