Hey All,
To go along with the wood tower you see posted occassionally, here's my wood heater...actually it gets it's heat from the engine's hot water, just like the HeaterCraft does...
The total cost is about $140 - $36 for the blower, $25 for the heater core and the remainder is hose, fittings, wiring.
I had the plywood and epoxy supplies from projects past.

wesgardner, nice work! That's pretty innovative! How well does it work? Looks like it probably works as well as a heatercraft. _________________ Riders Inc. |

Yes, very nice Wes. Have you explored using flexible, pull out ducts from the boat's interiror? _________________ Be an organ donor! My father is alive today because of kind souls that donate life... |
