Besides how you will be cooking and heating beverages, I'd also consider if you will ever use the stove as a heater.
We spent a very cold weekend (varied between 40F and 32F at night) on our 22, and our 2 burner Origo kept the cabin toasty warm.
In the morning we had the kettle boiling on one burner, while making breakfast on the other.
I sure as heck wasn't inclined to head outside to fire up our Kuuma propane BBQ.
What do want to cook ? Will you want to cook inside due to inclement weather ?
Do care about minimal garbage creation ? (multiple empty canisters vs a big jug of alcohol)
Like anything else, it depends on your personal needs.
You can find those butane stoves at any good sized asian grocery store.
As an added bonus, you can use it for asian hot pot/steamboat when you have guests over to your home.
FWIW: If I didn't already own a 2 burner Origo, I doubt I would spend the crazy money they ask for new ones, for use on a 22 ft boat (which I plan on upgrading from). I'd probably buy the small butane stove.
I'd worry about corrosion in a marine environment, but they are cheap enough, that you could simply buy a new one.
I have had as few that developed leaks where the canister connects to the stove. While I have simply replaced the stove when that happened, I only have the butane canister installed when I'm using the stove.
At the price, it is worth a try, and you can always use it at home if you decide you don't like it on the boat.
Edit: if you wanted two burners you could simply use two of them
