Electric Cookers & Ovens
GN Espace electric cooking appliances are specifically designed for use on sailing yachts and motorboats, where limited installation space and electrical power supply are key considerations.
Full electric cooking onboard has long been the dream of cruising sailors, and with the latest hybrid systems, new battery technologies, and onboard energy systems, that dream is now a reality.
GN Espace's electric induction cookers (stoves), ovens, and hobs combine the very latest induction technology with our proven construction methods and innovative product features, also found in our original gas cookers. This ensures a marine cooking solution that truly leads the market.
We have three ranges to suit different needs and design preferences:
The Offshore range: Stainless steel gimballed induction cookers with added features such as harbour locks, door locks, sea-rails, and pan-clamps, and built-in stainless steel oven & grills, more tailored for off-shore cruising with door locks. Perfect for monohulls and those spending extended periods at sea.
The Gourmet range: Featuring built-in induction cookers and electric ovens & grills, with a glossed, full glass front finish for a more domestic and premium feel. This range is non-gimballed, making it ideal for multihulls, motorboats, and canal boats. Sea-rail kits available.
The Explorer range: Featuring built-in induction cookers and electric ovens & grills with a more rugged design with an anodized aluminium finish. This range is also non-gimballed, making it better suited to multihulls, motoryachts, and canal boats. Sea-rail kits available.
Energy Efficient
Full insulation, correctly specified components and clever thinking has allowed us to create an energy efficient range of electric cooking appliances without any compromise on the cooking performance.
Our induction hobs heat the pot and not the Ceran glass. Serious cooks love induction hobs because they heat up incredibly quickly and are very responsive to control. To save energy, the Pot detection feature switches off the hob when the pot is removed.
An integral energy management system ensures that the hob never draws more than 3kW and the maximum load on the cooker is only 4.9kW.
Our multifunction ovens heat up quickly and the full insulation helps keep the heat in the oven where it belongs. Our unique ECO fan setting (fan cooking with the light off) and our decision not to have a wasteful and unnecessary electric timer help save valuable battery capacity.
Safety & Comfort
Your safety has been a key consideration in the design of our marine cookers. Induction hobs stay cool and add considerably to safety, as well as comfort, in the galley. Sturdy sea rails and pan clamps stop pans from sliding on the hob. A single-handed operation door lock keeps the oven door securely closed. To avoid the danger of hot food sliding out of the oven when you open the door, our oven shelves have safety stops.
The runners have a positive pull-out end stop, as well as having integrated fiddles, irrespective of whether you use the wire shelf or Gastronorm containers.
In addition, the cooker is secured by means of a solid harbour lock and inversion-proof gimbal mounts.
Performance
Our Induction hobs are packed with features that make cooking a real joy. Matching the speed and responsiveness of traditional gas burners, our induction hobs boast many other useful features, such as a 2.5kW Boost function, Auto-simmer, a Dual zone bridge function for large fish-kettle cooking, as well as Melt and Keep Warm settings.
The oven has a powerful heating element which surrounds the fan. This ensures even heat distribution throughout the cavity and allows you to cook on three levels at once. Our unique ECO Fan setting reaches the most widely used oven temperature (180°C) in less than half the time it takes for a traditional electric oven to reach its higher equivalent temperature. This saves you time and valuable electricity.
Easy to Clean
A quick wipe after cooking is all you need to keep the induction hob looking good. Unlike normal ceramic hobs, the induction hob heats the pots and not the Ceran induction surface itself. As a result, there is no danger of spillages burning on.
The oven cavity has been designed to avoid dirt traps and there is a removable oven roof, as well as a self-cleaning grill element, to help. All the hob and oven accessories are made from marine-grade stainless steel to ensure easy cleaning.

Due to the specialised nature of our products, we typically avoid working through distributors or retailers. Instead, we prefer direct engagement with our customers, as we believe it allows us to provide a superior service. However, we do offer worldwide delivery and frequently sell to all corners of the globe.
As we hand-build our cookers and ovens to order, please allow 5-6 weeks for production and delivery of your purchase. For accessories only, please allow 2 weeks. Rest assured, we'll keep you informed about the timeframes throughout the process.
- The product is boxed and palletised.
- We utilize reputable and reliable delivery services throughout the UK, delivering to the address of your choice.
- Delivery costs are charged as an additional fee. Alternatively, you can arrange to collect the product from our premises. We would be delighted to welcome you and provide a tour, demonstrating firsthand how we build our cookers.
We offer worldwide delivery and support, reaching clients across the globe, even in the most remote islands, through a reliable network of logistics companies. Please reach out to us to discover how we can assist you.
The general process for delivery outside of the UK is as follows:
- Products are sold to you DAP, excluding UK VAT, so you will need to pay VAT at your local rate upon arrival in your country.
- We will provide you with a waybill/ reference number for tracking purposes from the start of the delivery.
- Upon arrival, the carriers will contact you to arrange payment of any VAT charges/ local taxes.
- We strongly recommend tracking your consignment and, upon its arrival at the customs border, promptly contacting the carriers to arrange the necessary VAT payment. This proactive approach helps ensure smooth customs clearance and timely delivery to your final destination.
All our goods are shipped directly from the UK, and since we invoice everything exclusive of UK VAT, the only importation charges you would typically incur are the local market VAT equivalent upon importing your goods. There are no other import duties to pay besides the VAT. The carriers we use will inform you of the VAT amount to be paid once your consignment arrives at the final border/Customs. Once this payment is settled, the goods can be customs cleared for onward delivery.
Additionally, we strongly advise customers to proactively contact the carriers to promptly pay the VAT due upon importation. This proactive step can save a significant amount of time and ensure a smooth Customs clearance and quicker onward delivery. Please note that some states may require this process to be handled by a local Customs Broker. Please inquire with your own local import authority if this is required.

Our LPG cookers work with Propane, Butane, and Campingaz. However, you will need to ensure you have the correct gas regulator for the type of gas you choose to use.
All of our induction/electric appliances work on a 230v system. However, as all our induction cookers and hobs are 50/60Hz compatible without modification, should you wish to run these 230v appliances on a 110/120v electrical system, all you will require in addition, is a step-up auto transformer. We recommend a Victron unit for this purpose.
All of our products have been designed with efficiency in mind.
- Our LPG cookers are extremely economical in their gas usage due to the high-quality components that we use and the excellent insulation properties of our ovens.

Installation Process
For the majority of American gas pipe work on boats, you will need to adapt to an NPT thread and then to a flare. Any US marine gas engineer should ordinarily carry or be able to acquire the relevant adapter to fit our universal ½ BSP female tapered fitting and also to suit the diameter of your on-board gas pipe work.
We understand the move to electric can seem daunting, but it's a worthwhile process to remove gas from your vehicle or boat, giving you more freedom and flexibility. For advice on starting the transfer and migrating to a new system, visit victronenergy.com
We provide installation instructions for all of our appliances.
For Electric: If you are purchasing an induction or electric cooker, these come with a 6mm cable and must be hardwired into your yacht's or campervan's electrical circuit.
For Gas: If you are purchasing an LPG appliance, we recommend using a registered professional to install your new cooker.
All of our appliances come with a mounting or gimballing kit for installation, please tell us which you need upon purchasing.
