Does anybody know the required btus to heat a 1990 bayliner 4387?

The manuals I found were pretty vague and it's difficult to to figure without knowing the R value. I measured it to be about 3415 cubic feet inside. If anybody with a similar boat knows how much their current system produces I would appreciate the help. One manual I found says 16,000 btu but I just want to be sure. Cheers

to funny.. I think the Beatles did a song about this.. You say hello and I say goodbye, might have it reversed, lol

… and going back to his question it makes no sense. He is asking about BTUs in a trailer forum to start with. 1600 BTUs is not even a small BBQ and then he talks about the R value in cubic feet? Dont most folks just turn on the furnace, set the thurmostat and go....

I think the op would be best served by building a fir in the center of the boat, using marine grade oak... and then adding more fuel until it all goes into ash.

Fir, Oak, Ash? You'll be confusing the the poor spammer! :lol:
