The Dickinson Adriatic is the largest diesel galley range in the Dickinson lineup, designed for boats between 30 and 45 feet. It is the ultimate all-in-one appliance for larger vessels, providing a massive oven, a spacious cooktop, and powerful cabin heating.
Dickinson Adriatic: The Ultimate Marine Range
The Dickinson Adriatic offers a high heat output of 1.9kW to 4.8kW, effectively acting as the central heating hub for your vessel. Its expansive design allows for a larger oven (15” width) compared to other models, making it ideal for those who enjoy serious cooking or liveaboard full-time. Despite its size and power, it remains fuel-efficient, with consumption ranging from 0.2 to 0.5 litres of diesel per hour.
Standard features include a 12V draft assist fan to ensure stable combustion. Like other Dickinson ranges, the Adriatic can be customised with a single or double-turn hot water coil (up to 2kW), allowing it to provide domestic hot water through a SureCal calorifier or power a central heating radiator system.
Expert Installation and BSS Safety
Installing a large-scale diesel range like the Adriatic requires precision. Our OFTEC-trained engineers specialize in Dickinson Adriatic diesel cooker installations, ensuring compliance with Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) fire safety standards. To maintain a safe and efficient draft, the unit requires a permanent fresh air vent in the cabin and a barometric damper for any chimney run of 6ft or longer.
For further technical support and safety specifications, visit the Dickinson Marine Support Portal and the OFTEC guide for liquid fuel appliances. We are currently offering free installation for our narrowboat cooker kits during the Winter 2025/2026 season.
Custom Kits and Certification
The Adriatic is available as a complete Narrowboat Kit, which includes the cooker, a full flue system, drip tray, fuel line components, a fire valve, and a diesel appliance safety certificate. This certificate is a critical requirement for marine insurance and BSS examinations. You can also save up to £250 on your new setup through our stove trade-in deals.
