Where are you? We live aboard in Portland, Maine. I installed a Hurricane diesel hydronic heater with 3 zones. It kept us toasty warm all winter. Spent about $1,200 in diesel for the season. In the shoulder seasons we use our reverse cycle heating and AC in the summer.
If your marina meters electricity in the winter it can get expensive fast in a colder climate. I chose the Hurricane because it runs entirely on 12v and can be used at anchor. Very handy for early and late season sailing.
Our marina includes parking for one vehicle but not all do.
Best way to deal with parking for two is to only have one car. Sell the other and commute together. We are fortunate to live near work so we both walk to work.
