I'm sailing my Catalina in Sydney Harbour, Australia, and require a portable cabin heater for, at most, 3 months each winter.
I'm looking at what is available and have come across a Corona kerosene heater, maximum output 2.4kw. Has anyone any advice
re safety, stowage, alternative heater, etc.... I'd only be using the heater while at anchor or on a mooring. Looks like the Corona will
fit nicely on a plinth on the the floor of my forward cabin. Appreciate any advice.

Thanks for the info.... I'm getting a tank refill now, and am confident with the help of the forum I can monitor the usage going forward and avoid cold dinners!

I am a new C34 owner and also using an LPG gas stove for the first time. Can anyone advise me about how long I can expect the 3.7kg gas cylinder to last? I use one burner of the stove about 2-3 hours per month (24 to 36 hours per year) The Cylinder was last filled July 2016 just before I bought the boat.
