Godin factory do tours for the public, it is in the North between Lille and Boulogne (a bit vague there), but google Godin and I'm sure they will be there. He had a top loader with a side entered flue, so you had to take the kettle off if it needed re-filling, but it was probably boiling already anyway. If you know any French it's worth surfing the French dealers and finding out whether he was fantasising.

Edited Octoby ClarissaĪ mate of mine upnorth had one it went like a volcano and was very efficient due to the hopper arrangement. The overall best solid fuel stove always seems to come down to the Morso Squirrell but I like the Boatman better personally because it is ,ore compact and much lighter. I do prefer a window or opening port to be able to see some flickering flame which is a major part of running and enjoying a solid fuel stove. I knew a friend with a Godin in a boat, it was a cylindrical upright model with ornate enamelling work and very hot but ticked over nicely at low heat too when shut down. Godins are heavy, but probably not more than other full size solid fuel stoves. When you buy a "flue" or a "chimney" what you get is steel pipe, nothing glamourous. The only problem is with the flue exiting at the back, it would need some serious working out how to make it go up towards my existing chimney hole.Ĭut the steel pipe you use as a chimney at a forty five degree angle and weld the two parts back together with a 180 degree revolution so you get a ninety degree elbow.Ĭut it with a grinder, going around and around stroking the pipe neatly until it is severed. I really like the idea of top loading as you can really stock up on fuel and get the fire going continuously in the winter.

I put a 2nd hand large version of the one in you pic, into my old house. its hard to have a small fire too as even with the dampers closed it just burns up mega fast and its a job in itself to feed a small fire.Īny small stove recommendations, epecially round shaped ones, pot belly or otherwise, still, i do like the Godin. its also very difficult to keep a fire in over night as the grate is so wide and shallow its hard to build up a decent amount without then roasting ourselves in the process and removing all the oxygen from the boat. Our villager is a bit big, takes up lots of space and the ash pan is impossible to remove while you have a fire on the go. I really like the look of them, they take up less space than say a double door villager stove like I have at the moment and I was wondering if anyone has any experience of the Godin, either good or bad. Ive never seen a boat with one on, but ive not seen very many boats inside. Im curious to know if anyone has a Godin stove on their boat.
