(fire? mean works?)you know that This booat Works in(on) the water. Out of water doesnt work.

They are made with a candle like wax that would build up in chimneys and catch on fire, that would be my assumption.

The Calico has a short, hot flame somewhat like a mini blowtorch. Doubt if it would ever blow out in the wind.

It would be stable enough, the only issue is water coming over the bow if it's rough. The boat doesn't have a drain plug in the floor.

It has to be in the water. I didn't try pressing it tight against the hull and try measure through the hull, but doesn't seem to be likely it will work. Actually, it doesn't seem to work reliably when the boat is moving too - at speeds above 6 kt I hardly had any success.

No, as it has no fire resistant insulation. It will not catch fire as it is made from steel but the contents would be damaged if it was in a fire.

I only had that problem at the back of the boat...all the way around the rails were free on my Hurricane. I guess you.gotta decide if you wanna make a hole in the side panel so it can catch the scotty

This is fired by a propane tank, fluid will light so you run the chance of starting a fire under the house. Don't think it would be smart.

Not really. Think of it as two pieces of shiny thin cardboard with foam in between. If you put flames on it, it will burn. If it gets a little liquid splashed on it, it might be okay. If it is put under water, it will most likely become soggy and possibly break apart.

The outside of the heaters gets very hot, if there is hay or other flammable items floating around and it lands on the heating elements it could start a fire, these heaters are nice but they only produce a little bit of heat and a fair amount of light from the 3 heating elements.

It depends what the roof is made out of. This fire does get pretty hot and intense.

I don't really know but I think it would ignite if it got too hot.... you can't see through it, maybe a shadow of something is all.

There should be a thermal link (fuse) some where in it as a safety feature. It could have blown if the unit got to hot. Also look at heating element, it could have split from calcium in the water.

We dug a hole in the dirt and placed it down in it and the water bowl sits on top of that. Also, the water bowl is larger than the water heater base, so there is very little chance of contact with straw, but even if there was, I can't imagine that it could catch anything on fire. It is more like a heating pad than a hot plate. Hope that helps:)

I don't think this was designed for outside/boat conditions... they ask you to plug it into your cigarette lighter and place it on your dash... water would ruin it, hope this helps, Roosevelt C.
