Plastimo cooker spares

[jerry_jones]

Apologies to any of you who have seen this in uk.rec.sailing.

That nice Mr Ferrand has slung his old cooker my way now he has bought a
shiny new one. It's a Plastimo Atlantic and does not have flame-failure devices on
the hob burners or grill. Plastimo tell me that they will send it back to the
manufacturer in the UK for a retrofit at about £160-odd, which isn't a bad
price when compared to replacement at about £400, but I wonder if anyone
knows of a cheaper way of achieving the same result?

I have a tame CORGI-registered gas fitter who would be happy to do the job
and test it if I can get the parts for him. Not a job that I think I'll
tackle - I don't like LOUD BANGS!

Try Yacht Parts in Plymouth, something in the back of my mind tells me they have the rights to plastimo cooker spares in the UK. They have a web site somewhere! HOpe that helps, sorry if I'm wrong.

Help great have you been, Yoda

I spoke to them today, and they indeed supply from stock a complete top, including 2 burners, a grill, all 4 gas valves (including the oven) and the stainless steel plate, all for £189 inc. VAT. All I need to do now is extract some money from my recalcitrant customers and I can order one!
