[QUOTE="stalker, post: 148320, member: 863"] I fished in one of these last Friday and Saturday. We had good heat from one single tank buddy heater. Outside was windy and in the low teens. I don't remember the BTUs. Of course we are all experienced Norseman, so 50 is nice. It did get a little slippery in there since the ice was melting from so much heat. Brought out some more pieces of pink Styrofoam for day two. I did leave my coat on and I did quit sweating once the sun got low. How do you keep from breaking those stupid hubs? Somehow, we broke one on the second set up (third trip overall). It was ok sized for three guys and a dog. We had plenty of room for six holes (MN). Bait was in the middle so everyone could reach. Used it for spearing the first time out. You can have a really nice long hole for two spears. Make sure all of the vents are open if you go with a 30,000 Plus BTU heater. That's going to remove a lot of O2. Maybe all of those quilting holes let in enough air - until they frost up. [/QUOTE]
