What makes a boat a "high latitudes" cruiser? It's a term I've seen a
few times and I'd like to know what makes it different to a "blue water"
cruiser.


Heating on yachts is often a bad joke. Presumably a hi lat boat has a
good furnace. There is one originally intended for trucks that is
supposed to be pretty good.

Airtronic aka Espar or
Wabasco

Little diesel powered hot air heaters, forced hot air heat in your boat.

Warm AND dry.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, heavn!
