Having searched all over town (all hardware stores, cleaning supply places and even Shoppers Home Health Care) I've come to the conclusion that denatured alcohol for the Origo 3000 is unavailable in Thunder Bay.

Are there any acceptable substitutes or suggestions where/how this stuff can be purchased?

Thanks

Hi Chris,

It was nice sailing with you last week!

Methyl Hydrate by the gallon at Canadian Tire is what I buy. It's smokeless and works perfectly and works better than comparables from the boat store.
