Hi Tim,
Beautiful boat; you take good care of her.
I have a 28 foot S-2 sailboat and am in the market for a stove and heater. To my surprise Wallas makes them both, in one unit no less. And the unit runs on diesel, not dangerous propane. I noticed in your article that you have one.But I never heard of Wallas. Before I sink a lot of money into their unit I wanted to get an unbiased opinion. Do they give enough heat, do they draw much electricity, and for my wife; do they stink? Would you buy another one or is there a better product that you know of.
Thanks and good boating,
Dave

That’s Pettit Vivid, which was recommended by the folks at Seaview Boatyard. They paint a lot of boats in the region, so I trust their judgement.

I selected white just ’cause it would be different from the old black, but it turns out it takes more than one coat to cover over old dark paint, naturally. You Have Been Warned!

[...] Anyway, this spring I discovered a problem with my stove installation. Not with the stove itself; it’s working fine. Perhaps you remember this photo from my recent haulout: [...]

Question: it looks like you used a white bottom paint. Can you tell me what you used and why you choose white? Many thanks. Joe
