Re: Bilge Heater
Recommend Xtreme Heaters if a heater in general is appropriate for your climate (vs full winterization).

True Forced Air Heating circulates air more effectively and heats more evenly for more accurate climate control.
Automatic Thermostat turns the heater on at 40°F and off at 55°F +/-3° – the tightest tolerance available.
Failsafe Design cannot overheat. Heating technology is dynamic and self-regulating.
High-Efficiency Xtreme produces heat faster, circulates more air and shuts off earlier.
Pre-wired 15ft marine rated power cord with 110V 3 prong plug eases installation.
Maximum Life – Designed for durability and reliability.
Complete Protection: Fully anodized inside and out.
Small Footprint
Certified and Independently Tested now with the UL 1278 standard

Ask the people in Texas with cracked blocks how bilge heaters worked out for them when they lost power for multiple days.dogwspts wrote: Fri Nov 18, 2022 5:38 pm Anyone ever use a bilge heater for the cold winters. Thinking about getting one.
Your engine has one of the simplest water draining of almost any engine. Just use it. Air doesn't freeze.
