Don,

My 85 has a CNG system and my situation is much the same as yours.  The
closest place I can get CNG is Indianapolis, IN about 110 miles.  Also my
tank was last certified in 1991 or the certification expired then so that
would need to be done before I would put 2000 to 3000 psi of natural gas in
it.  So I’m going to convert to alcohol.

Do you have any pictures of your installation?  The Origo should fit in the
Seaward enclosure.  Just have to figure out how to anchor it.

How do you keep things cool?  The un-insulated built in icebox is
essentially worthless as a cooler but I don’t like the extra cooler sitting
around in the cabin.

Thanks,

My boat came with a CNG stove, but CNG is getting very hard to find in this
area.  Last year we bought an Origo 3000 on ebay for a pretty good price.
We cook a lot on the boat and the mate wanted a 2 burner stove that fit in
the same space as the old one.  We both like the stove.  It is simple and
safe.  Cooks just as fast as the old CNG.  Now I have more space in the
lazzeret without that big bottle.
