Re: Help! Too Cold, Condensation, Sick, Need Info

Thanks Anne,
Looks like those "flameless" propane catalytic elements put out moisture after all. What a gimmick.
Waterbottles are a safe heater & affordable. Nothing wrong w/ water-bottles,...

We know the stove's catalytic device creates a lot of moisture in the air, which is a big problem for using it for heat...

Re: Help! Too Cold, Condensation, Sick, Need Info

That's golden, thanks. A working depth sounder makes all the difference. Will look into this more. Maybe bring the boat in shallower water at near high-tide. I'm so glad I don't have to haul out...

I took apart the propane stove as soon as I got this boat, & checked it for leaks w/ soapy water. The...

Re: Help! Too Cold, Condensation, Sick, Need Info

I know from many experiences, from one house after the next, that mold is the health destroyer & brings on great headaches, however, you can live with others in the same moldy house and be the only...

Re: Help! Too Cold, Condensation, Sick, Need Info

Checked out your blog. Cats, a dog, big boat. Looks interesting. Not surprised about SouthBeach diet. A raw meat diet sounds best... speaking of which, I have to figure out the easiest way to...

Re: Help! Too Cold, Condensation, Sick, Need Info

Cap, :) You're going to get me in trouble.
I think as long as we place the Golden Rule 1st, we won't be in any danger.

Bleach is great stuff for cleaning. I used to be a professional...

Re: Help! Too Cold, Condensation, Sick, Need Info

Re: Help! Too Cold, Condensation, Sick, Need Info

My battery is low & the clouds & lack of sunshine haven't helped, so I just got to reading all these. Thanks for the great advice. Glad to my options & the dangers involved. I love the idea for an...

Re: Help! Too cold, Condensation, sick, need info

That really drives the propane danger home! I take precautions. So far, the suggestions are working very nicely. Big difference. I can see the condensation from my breath, but that don't bother me...

Re: Help! Too cold, Condensation, sick, need info

I didn't know most of this stuff! For starters, I'll keep the hatches open when heating up the pressure cooker (cooking food) & then turn off the stove & seal the hatches & let the super-heated...

Hi, I'm new.
I recently bought a 35' sailboat & am on the hook for the 1st time.
