Wesley: Thanks. What kind of stove do you have? And what kind of microwave/convection? My idea was to eliminate the oven part of the Princess stove and replace it with the convection oven on the overhead thus giving me cabinets under the stove - is this equipment choice a reasonable approach do you think? What about broiling? What would I miss the oven for? Appreciate your thoughts.

Hate the background noise from the generator but we need to run same for a couple of hours a day to keep icebox chilled. By coordinating functions - running genset when cooking in morning and evening - the situation is liveable. If I were desigining the boat, silence would be one objective and gas would be seriously considered. On a larger vessel with a smaller genset, noise control might be less of an issue. Our boat is 37' and genset is diesel 7.5 Kw.
