Woollen blankets, diesel heater, I have sleeping bag rated -15.
I used to use a few different types diesel heater. Car, truck, caravan.
They all work very well, except horrible stinking smell all around.
Try first before you decide.

I bought one of those bags that you could use in Antarctica years ago for my trip to Tassy. every night about two thirty on the morning Ive have to get out of it to cool down even on the west coast in the middle of winter. I must adimt I did have ice on my knees a few times while riding my bike used to shove new papers down my trousers still me knees would tank slap
I am hoping in winter my Taylor stove will have its oven door open and use it to warm the cabin
Yes HG, it's nearly guarantee, you'll be nice and warm.
You have good use of it in Vic.
Last one I had was from imported German tractors.
My friend installed in his caravan, very happy.
Gas heaters with fan forced circulation is another option.
These are more common in caravans than diesel .
Europien caravan imported to AUS used them as a central
heating set up. They actually dual, electric - gas.
There is even better option, petrol heaters, very small unit,
extremely efficient, no smell.
used to use them in air cooled cars in Europe.
Not sure if they are still in production.
Stove wise we just have a two burner maxi not to big on any gas options. I figure if our family of five is more comfy on board=use boat more !!!
Please do not use your stove for cabin heating HG.
You may not wake up the next day.
There has been a lot of press about carbon monoxide poisoning recently.
Check the Sailworld site on this.
Thanks for advice coolrunnings ! Am well aware of carbon monoxide poisoning. Would be interested to hear someones opinion on mounting exhausts for diesel heater on a canoe stern.
