Does anyone have any knowledge, experience or input? I can't really see
anything wrong with it as long as it is stored properly and obviously
operated in the open,


That's where I see a big problem - operating it in the open. This usually
involves putting the thing high up where it broadcasts noise to everybody
within half a mile. Just because you want to run a coffeemaker?

Why not use a quite cookstove and spare all concerned the noise in an
anchorage where quiet it called for? Or do you wish to be viewed as just
another inconsiderate cheapskate asshole who ruins cruising for everybody
else?
