The Happy Nomad

Did it once with no adverse effects. I don't think it's recommended that you do it often or routinely but occasionally would normally be OK.

I got my spare from eBay and never had an issue with it. However some on here state they had problems in that they didn't operate every time.

Well we dont know the full circumstances though, did they suddenly become ill, lose their job, die, etc etc. I do also think though not everybody buying a boat fully understands the time and financial commitment involved. This is particularly so if the boat is kept some way away from your primary residence.

Because its a discussion forum and a comparison was being made between how things are different when selling and buying other large value items by comparison. HTH.

Yup. Only reason we couldnt transfer our mover from the previous 'van to our current one was our previous van was a twin axle. They are expensive items when new. We did swap the roof mounted air con though. Or rather the dealer did.

Ignore me wrong boat.

Perhaps because you didn't mention he hadn't. Cross posted with Athy

When we bought ours in 2015 I got about ten miles from the dealer and twigged I hadn't seen a mains hook up cable in the 'van. Sure enough pulled over and checked, there wasn't one, returned to the dealer. The sales guy at Kimberley Caravan's said 'no worries I have a spare one I can let you have' as if he was doing us a favour. I did remind him that all new 'van's are supposed to be supplied with one so it really should have been checked it was present and correct. They'd obviously purloined it for us on another 'van.

Doubt it. I don't think that is their style at all.

Ah right. I perhaps misunderstood when you asked 'should I stick with solid fuel'. 🙄

Agreed, if the OP has room for a diesel stove they should have room for a solid fuel stove. All be it not maybe a Squirrel. Various compact small stoves can be had. I hesitate to mention the Boatman stove as iSTR somebody on here had an issue with one, but they are worth a look.
