I'm now envisioning a 30 lb battery, hooked to a cord and a 12volt heat
strip.  I can put it on a timer to start 3 hours before I plan to leave.
I'm not an electrical expert - but I think that will work.
 
 The only thing I can add is that you could add a solar system to keep the
battery charged. Expensive, but it may make your system more user-friendly.
See West Marine for some good information and options.

[Great idea, Guy, and surprisingly not really all that expensive.  I purchased two 15watt panels and a 12v 7A solar charging controller all for under $200 from Northern Tool.    <marv>     ]
