I kayak camp the coastal islands of Everglades National Park in SW FL. Wind is my only consideration--not weight, size, elevation, or low temps. I have an alcohol stove (used on AT thru-hike 2006/7), but now, after knee replacements, just sail/peddle/paddle my kayak with my fishing buddies out to beautiful little islands and setup camp and go fishing for a few days. Between food we bring and fish we catch, cooking requires a base-camp type stove--preferably a remote canister stove, with a wide burner and wide supports to handle large pots/pans, and is stable.
I'm considering Snow Peak's GigaPower BF (wide-burner model GS-310A) and MSR's WindPro (also with large burner). Don't see BTU rating for MSR, but SP shows 11,200 BTUs.
Would appreciate any input, opinions, etc.
Thanks,
Lonesome Polecat
