Perhaps he told his wife to shut up during the news once too often and
is in hospital recovering from a fractured skull caused by a blow from a

I didn't do anything other than post about the coleman burner - which
was wrong.

Now,
why don't we all just go back to discussing sailing.


I'd love to but I'm not about to stop if someone keeps posting shtuff

What other
questions do you have? Have you ever been sailing? On waht type of
boat? In what waters?


katy man - now you're scaring me - and what I'm about to say is just
what I've observed - you went from raving to being nice - I'm freaked
out - I found some forums on the subject so I'll post some Q's there as
I get them. And then I'll be hitting the meetings for a local club.

Thanks, but I'm good for now.

I had a single Origo, when it's cold and the boat's closed
up the smell bothered me. Seemed like it took long to boil
water. But the fuel is cheap, safe and readily available.
The compact size is nice for a small boat.

What type of sailing/cruising are you planning to do, Jon?
The biggest glitch with CNG is finding a place to exchange
bottles. Not a problem for short term sailing. My last
bottle has been in 2 seasons and is still 7/8 full.

You could put in a drop of scented oil (rose oil is nice)..then it
wouldn't smell so bad...

Yes. Infinitely. On mine, it was a round 'plate' that slid
over the fuel canister opening, via a sliding knob. Also
when you closed it , it would cover the opening, thus
preventing evaporation, which I believe Thom mentioned.

Yeah, that should work. At first I though it was the fuel
( Hardware store) but I tried some from an RV place and it
was the same.

I think 95% of the time it would be in the bay. So, finding an exchange
probably isn't an issue. At some point, I'll do a long weekend down or up
the coast, but realistically for the short-term, it's not in the cards, as
work is really getting crazy right now. At some point, I'd like to take it
down to Mexico, but that's not for a couple of seasons.

The Origo was the builders choice. $300 for the option I believe. For some
reason, the original owner didn't go for that.

Thom Stewart October 7th 06 04:33 PM

Scout,

I had 500 watt Micro Wave and I loved the damn thing. The inverter to
run it was a HUGE current drain on the batteries. I ran the Diesel when
ever I used the M/W to keep the charge up. I got by with a 50 Amp Gen.
on the Diesel.

When I say used I mean over 5 minutes. To heat soup or morning instant
coffee wasn't a problem.

I made a jumper cable to plug the inverter into the shore power plug.
That way I could use the Electric Percolator on the 110 outlet plugs.
Did make the Cabin smell good.

Another inside cooking source was my Origo Cabin heater. I'd flip the
top grate over and the Pressure Cooker fit nicely as well as a Dutch
oven ( Great for making Ribs) I heated the Cabin, and had a stew going
on those chilly evenings in the Northwest.

Thom Stewart October 7th 06 05:37 PM

Hey Scotty,

Your Jib Sheet should bisect the angle of the Clew 50/50 under normal
conditions. As the wind picks up, move it the back to to let top fall
off as you put more of the tension on the foot of the sail. As the wind
gets weaker, you want to move the sheet forward to tighten to leech and
make the sail baggy.

Often, with Auto furling head sail, people reduce sail without moving
the sheet car to maintain this angle relationship.

Proper Jib sheet angle will be felt in the helm, the heeling will be
less and the "Groove" will be wider.

I have a Coleman dual fuel 533. (about 35 $s at Wal Mart) It burns Coleman fuel or unleaded
gasoline from the gas station. It gets very hot fast and heats water fast. It's small and would fit on your
counter easily. It takes up hardly any room. Just put something on top of the counter to keep it from sliding
off.

Cheers,
Ellen
