I guess I'm going to try it before I convert to CNG.

ORIGO 4100 DOUBLE BURNER STOVE - DROP-IN Have a look here http://www.interconmktg.com/pages_stoves/4100.htm I haven't tried it yet, but that's what I have on my boat. We had the earlier version on our last boat. Great stove, if a bit smelly. Never failed to do what we asked of it. Max |

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. -- Scott Vernon Plowville Pa _/)__/)_/)_ "Capt. JG" wrote in message ...

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

At first I though it was the fuel ( Hardware store) but I tried some from an RV place and it was the same. Scotty |

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. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Scotty" wrote in message . ..
