Default .... looking for a heater that is safe to use?

Down at the Wal-Mart, I have seen these small portable, propane powered heaters in with the camping equipment. It looks like a round heater gizmo attached to the top of a propane tank, same size small tank as what is used with a torch.

Thanking about next winter, or next spring or sometime for boating in cold temps; could these heaters be used safely in an 18' outboard boat, center console, with a stand-up Sunbrella enclosure around the center console and the tee-top.....or is it just too dangerous to be using a propane heater on an outboard boat that has a 20-gal tank forward of the center console, and a 2-stroke 75-hp outboard. The tank vents thru a black poly tube thru the side of the hull, ahead of the center console.

Could be its better to just go with a big thermos of hot chocolate, and some warm clothes.
