Anyone have suggestions for a proper heater for a 33? We are up here in the cold north and I wish to install one this summer for the fall season. We are really leaning to solid fuel models. Looking at Dickenson solid fuel and Paul E. Luke Solid Fuel (What the hell!) models. Haven't found anything in between pricewise. Anyone have a Tiny Tot for sale?
Thanks,

Paul E. Luke makes a swell stove.
Buy the stove Paul. A solid fuel stove.
A parallel traveler
CD in my dreams, the number and size doesn't matter.

Paul,
Greetings fellow Superior Sailor! Good to have ye aboard!
You and I already corresponded about our Dickinson Newport solid fuel fireplace. If you are interested in propane, I can highly recommend the New Dickinson Propane Fireplace. I helped a friend install one in an Allberg 37 last spring, and this is one honey of a stove!!
First..it looks COOL. Second it is entirely enclosed..burner, and flame are total enclosed and it uses a separate co-axial with the exhaust pipe, conduit for outside air, so it does not deplete the interior air. What this does is to remove the huge objections to the Force 10 junk out there now..with open flames..totally open to anything getting to close to them. It uses outside air compared to the Force 10's use of internal air that it has already heated up..sending that up the stack.
I can attest that it puts out a whopping amount of heat too.Our friends used this heater a lot during their 2 weeks in the Slate Islands and then traveling thru Rossport and Loon Harbor westward to Isle Royale. They had even more fog & cold than we did on the same trip later in the year. I think they said they had 7 days of completely fogged in conditions. So the heater got a workout. It has a built-in variable speed fan for good circulation, and includes the piping, coaxial air intake/exhaust pipe and deck fittings..worth about $3-400 by itself.
The price is right too. Check it out. I included a URL below.

Re: Proper Heater Suggestions for CD 33
I have just installed a third Force 10 Kerosene heater on a sailboat here in the northwest. I have one on my CD 28, installed one on a Catalina 30, and just installed one on a 36 footer! No I do not sell them (best price for the unit is pyacht.com) but I sure like the way they work!
Can go for weeks on a gallon of kerosene-no fuss-no mess-easy to install-but you need a one-inch bender for the stack.-and you only have to cut a two inch hole through the cabin!
