Hi, the flexible propane line behind the stove in our 2015 415 is to short. The short hose does not allow the stove to gimbal properly. I do not recognize the fittings. any thoughts on obtaining a longer hose with correct fittings would be appreciated. Thank you.

Not sure if your aware the standard orange rubber gas hose to the cooker from the factory wont pass a UK gas inspection. To get a gas certificate in the UK this hose has to be an armoured gas hose which surprised me and has to be fitted and tested by an authorised gas installer. As gas on a boat sinks into the bilge and is so potentially dangerous one of the few jobs might be worth getting done professionally to get a certificatied installation?

Having seen the aftermath of a gas explosion onboard a Services yacht years ago in which the skipper lost a leg, I very strongly support Tranquillity's post. Unless you're in the back of beyond with no access to a certified professional this is a system best not fiddled with. Your Insurers will almost certainly agree!
