We an Origo pressureless alchohol stove on our c&c30-1. I am a big fan. Uses cheap Methyl Hydrate from Home Depot. Never a problem. Easy to fill, easy to light, no maintenance at all and very safe. It has a deceptively small flame but boils water very fast. It has a nice low simmer too, more than good enough for my cooked oatmeal. Only downside is that Origos are quite expensive. I hear that you can get lucky on ebay when ignorant boat owners who acquire one with a new (to them) old boat put them up for sale not knowing what they have. Here is a link to the manufacturer. Our model is a gimballed version of the 3000 model.

I have not read anything about the big box fuel. ?Are you saying to stay away or that it should be fine with the big box stuff?

It fired right up. Yours may just need cleaning. The secret is to use a good, high quality sootless stove fuel. Don't believe what you might read about using alcohols bought at a big box store. Pay the extra dollar or two for dedicated stove fuel. I keep a small hand bicycle pump on board to pump the tank to 7-9 psi. I have original instruction manual for my Shipmate 3 burner with oven. The burners heat up happily. The oven is pathetic. Might make 275F on a hot day in July. The Admiral and I are both experienced campers so we're used to such stoves. Dennis C.
