I bought a single burner from Tom VanAtta's sailboat shop in Tucson ... 1993 ... it's on my M17 and I have a two burner on my larger boat. Would not trade ... no not even for a good kerosene cooker. I used to waste more time getting a burner started than you lose with alcohol. Love it ... but they are pricey!
