ALCOHOL TO PROPANE STOVE REFIT
E32 Stove Refit
Date: April 2, 1999
From: Paul Uhl endvr32@endeavourowners.comThis spring we will be replacing our original alcohol stove aboard our 1982-E32 "Friendly Confines" with a propane system. Given the age and number of E32s floating around out there, it seems to me that this would be a popular refit topic and might be of value to other owners. Therefore we will be documenting the process we're going through aboard our boat as well as injecting experiences of other E32 owners. Although there will be issues specific to Endeavour 32 much of the information should be of value to anyone making this refit. I invite all owners to participate. At the completion of the project I'm inviting everyone over for a gormet cyber dinner complete with drinks and fireworks! Salute.
Having said that, the project will be divided into several steps:
