Hello Board,

I'm on the lookout for a two burner range and water tank for my boat! Let me know if you have either of these laying around. It's a late seventies dinette style C-25.

Cheers,

Dan, I have an original Princess stove that has been converted to propane. When I sold a 1981 C25 - the buyer had other plans for food prep so he removed the stove and gave it to me. I also have a new never-used (smaller size) propane tank. Let me know and I'll forward some pix.

Dan,

I've got the original 2 burner alcohol stove from my 1980 dinette c25. It is in working order.

Hi
My water tank was a cess pool when we got the boat. Our solution was to remove it. I substituted 2 - 5 gallon water jugs (military grade) with a combination of washers and tubing to create a a water source and receptical for the galley sink. The jugs have a venting cap which is necessary for the whale pump to work. The jugs are held in with 2 straps securred by a washer and bolt to the back wall (exterior storage area. I have two brackets (recycled from an old motor mount)glued to the floor with 5200.
I add a small amount of bleach to the containers and fill with fresh water. The water is only used for washing hands and clean up but it lasts most of the summer.
If your tank is anything like mine was it would be impossible to replace with an identical tank as it appeared to be built in before the seat was added. It took a couple of hours to get the original out using a sawzall.
Good Luck
