Hmm, looks like I just hit a dead end on my natural gas to propane conversion. The GSI stove is a Seward 2132 not a 2174. The 2132 does not have the automatic gas cutoff if the flame goes out. The conversion would require a new stove. That causes problems because the refer packed it in last year and needs to be replaced. The boat needs hauling this year and it is scheduled for a new shaft seal and vibration damper. A new stove is out unless I found a used one that works. A refill is 85+ miles one way across a floating bridge and a ferry ride. A pair of full canisters would make me a very nervous driver as most of the roads are two lane and prone to accidents. I have found a place in Sidney, BC that exchanges cylinders but the last exchange was $110 a cylinder.
Are there any opinions out there about the safety of this stove using natural gas as it's fuel.
Do any of you Ericsons on Vancouver Island have sources for natural gas?
