Welcome to CF! Lots of info here.
Why don't you just jump right in and start a thread - try the
refit forum for your
wiring questions and
liveaboard forum for heat.
Just to start you off we have 2
Dickinson diesel stoves. The large Atlantic model in the forward area is our heat, hot
water and cook
stove. The smaller
Adriatic model is aft in the sleeping quarters. I love the dry heat. With both stoves running in the middle of
winter we use just under 2 gals a day.
Good luck on your projects!
