My mommy and daddy are going to allow me to put my boat in their gerauge this winter to do the work that i want to on my boat. Their house is about 2 miles from my wife and I. I know ill have to remove the tounge and add one of those removeable kits to it so that it will fit in there. There is no heat in there at all. And im wondering what you guys think i should use to heat inside there? I was thinking about a kerosiene heater but i dont like those and think they are dangerious. I work at Blows (lowes) and they sell electric gerauge heaters but they are standard 110 and i think they are junk. Just looking for some ideas as in a month or 2 it will go to the greauge for hibernation and hopefully come out as something beautiful. I cant stand the cold though. I plan on putting a TV in there for the winter so i can watch hockey whyle i drink beer and work on the boat and drink beer whyle im drinking beer whyle im using power tools and drinking beer. LOL Thanks for any input on the heater!!

A propane heater is needed for that, preferably a forced air portable propane heater would do the trick.

prpane heaters produce moisture. if the garage is attatched to the house it could be dangerous. they also dont burn pure you'll be breathing propane. i would wire a 220 baseboard heater. the rule for them is 10 watts per sq ft much cheaper
