Default Help with heat...and "other"

Need some help. I am installing a small woodstove in my V21 cuddy for those cold winter days. I would like suggestions on where to mount, where to run the flue and of course, where to stack 1/2 cord of seasoned oak. On top of that, my stripper pole is starting to oxidize (near top) from taking spray and the fact that I haven't had strippers on it in at least a month (I know...). It is 3" stainless. Any help on cleaners/polishes would be appreciated. I am at a loss on these issues. With cold weather approaching I want to get these knocked off my list......fast. Anybody?

i went with the wood pellet system on mine, burns cleaner(smaller flue) and pellets stack up a lot more compact that firewood. of course being in fl our winters are shorter. our biggest problem is humidity in the wine bilge
as far as the pole, i'm guessing woody wax

I'm thinking replace the helm seat with the stove.....keep your *** nice and warm. Tow the 1/2 cord of wood behind the boat in a dinghy.

Rob, I like the way you're thinking...but what about the strippers. Can't have them running about the V with rusty chalky hands.....you know what can happen!?!

Pole looks like this but has a female silhouette flag (pink) on top, upside down of course (catch and release):

Blue if you would keep the pole in use this would not happen!

Jason - thanks for stating the obvious! But I sprained my left testicle littel over a month ago and by Dr.'s orders I have to take it easy for 6 weeks! One more week......

Where the hell is BGREENE?
