Getting a non-marine grade propane appliance for the boat strikes me as a bit foolhardy. The chances of being blown up or poisoned probably go up quite a bit with non-marine appliances, since pinholes from corrosion are probably much more a likelihood.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
