Heating for a 31ft 2 cabin boat.

[Latestarter1]

New boat comes with a Eberspacher, not sure what kW size, haven't looked yet.

Engine box is central to the boat, I can install the eber in the engine space, run one outlet to the aft cabin, one to the main cabin fairly easily.

Is it worth having a heating outlet in the heads? No worth it?

Cockpit will have a canopy, perhaps have an outlet in the cockpit? Or leave cabin doors open and allow the heat to permeate into the cockpit?

Presume its sensible to have outlet fittings that can be closed so I can put the heat where I want it?

Assume Eberspacher has not been installed.

Does it come with exhaust skin fitting? These fittings are crazy $$ from distributors, usually around £90.

Company in Turkey http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Dieselheaters4u-Ltd has great prices £39 for the skin fitting and everything you require to install.

On the advice of a mutual friend I fitted outlet at deck level by my helm. Boat moving in Chichester harbour on icy winters morning with warm feet was a lifesaver.
