How to install gas & hob in a small sailing boat

[waynes world]

I have a ruffian 23 which im slowly doing up and kitting out, have no way to cook at the moment. I know if i am to use propane and a small hob i need to be careful as gas can build up inside the boat
1) isit worth putting in a gas system, would a camping stove be easier?
2) what do i need to install a simple but safe gas system?

For ease and safety i would fit the LPG cylinder in a deck locker that is self draining and air tight above the valve height and top entry. While your at it in the locker even fit a Alde bubble tester. then a single run of microbore copper pipe to a shut of valve near the hob then a short length of hose to the hob.

This was you can shut the gas off on the valve in the cabin when finished with the hob

One point that surveyors here check is that the gas cylinder is securely strapped and cannot move in heavy weather. Not sure if this was mentioned earlier.
