The PO upgraded the stove to a Force propane unit, which is nice. It came with a 10ft gas hose, regulator, gauge and connectors, which is also nice. What I didn't like was that the hose was just coiled up inside the cabinet under the stove, with one pound propane canisters connected. Looked like a project unfinished and a safety hazard. The propane tanks should be outside.
I had to run the hose on top of the aft berth floor, it would be too difficult, if not impossible to run it under the floor. It was a challenge just to get wiring under there.
The aft berth cushion covers it nicely though.
The gas hose is run into the gas compartment. I used a Vapor-Tight Straight-Thru fitting.
There is a quick disconnect fitting allowing the disconnection from the hose for stowage if desired. I added a gas shutoff valve for addition safety. If there is a leak, the gas will spill out the stern motor well. There's enough room to store a couple extra canisters too.
