Princess Stove Renew

If it weren't for the fact that my oven coil connections are rusted out on my Princess, I would really be thinking of installing this Mini Duo to refresh the galley with minimum cost.

Personally I like the induction idea, having had experience with propane I would strongly caution its use on a boat because the gas is more dense than air and a leak will settle in low places and is extremely hard to vent correctly on a boat. Also too much vibration for joints and lines, just a bad idea in my considered opinion.
Sure there are boats with set ups, there will always be, but that does not change the facts of the gas itself and the correct install has many hoops to jump thru regulation wise........good luck with your refit..

Re: Princess Stove Renew
Our first Carver had propane and it worked very well. Our current boat has the electric three burner stove top. Hate it. We are currently using a portable butane camp stove. The previous owner had left an older induction burner but we never did figure out how to use it and couldn't find an owner's manual on line.
