I have used my Force 10 for two summers for all types of cooking. The
only limitation has been the size of the pan. (As the weather gets
cooler, I use my diesel stove or while at the dock, an electric hot plate.)

I think the Force 10 is of good quality and very serviceable while at
ancbor or while under sail.

However here are a couple minor problems I have noted that you might note:
1) The cylinder screws into the bottom of the control valve which is
made of cast aluminum. After threading and unthreading the cylinder
about 6 times a day, these threads are becoming worn and I expect I will
have to replace the whole valve next season..

2) The control valve doesn't allow the flame to be lowered enough for a
low simmer and I end up scorching food somethings. As and alternative, I
made a auxilary grate that allows me to raise the pan higher above the
flame. (Not recommended when under sail, since this may upset the
balance of the stove.)

I may attempt to contact Force 10 about these complaints and perhaps if
others have the same complaints, they my offer an upgrade.

Bottom line-- I think this is a good value for the money, very handy
piece of gear.
