If you go for the Ebbie, Watch out When you buy the cheap Ebbie (lorry kit & 12V) which is a good price, as the kit only comes with a small amount of pipe - just enough for a lorry, but not enough for a boat. We failed to spot that and ended up buying pipe afterwards

None of those, go for a Dickinson's Newport, no electrics, no fans, no problems.

What about a Wallas - I got fed up with the motor brushes wearing out in my Eberspacher and costing €600 to replace the motor and fan unit. Wallas is repairable and they are much nicer people to deal with. Eberspacher didn't care about my problem.

Hi
We have a Webasto Airtop 5000 and it does well - heating our wee beastie with seven outlets!
That's more hot air than a Friday night at FYC!

There are people you can get these from who are not as expensive as the 'marine' guys (see pm).
