Re: Stus-List Block Island's Great Salt Pond - Town Mooring or Dock Reservation?
One final recommendation: Brewer's in Mystic. It is a fun sail inside Fisher's Island, and then up the channel past Noank to Mystic. Do not be tempted to cut the dog-leg at Noank entrance. The Brewer yard has BBQs, pool, and good showers, and then an easy dinghy ride up the river to the Mystic town dock and Mystic Seaport. Plenty of restaurants, bars, etc. Mystic is an easy sail to Newport or Block.

Re: Stus-List Block Island's Great Salt Pond - Town Mooring or Dock Reservation?
Tom, I second Edd's comments. Go for a slip. Choice is limited - many of the slips are too shallow. When we lived in Connecticut, Block was the most fun part of our summer cruise. Rather than deal with the uncertainty of finding a mooring, we would book a "slip" at Champlin's. I use the term slip advisedly, because Champlin's pile the boats in, and you will inevitably find yourself rafted 3 deep. However, that is all part of the fun. The place is a summer-long party (80% power boaters), with a bar by the fuel dock, music, pizza, ice-cream, cinema, pool. Really a lot of fun - and that is before you even leave the marina. If you have an extra couple of days, Cuttyhunk is about 35 miles further. The "anti-Block". Well worth the visit.

Re: Stus-List CNG Gas Stove Instructions
Ray, There is not much to this. Others may elaborate, but here's my take: Your primary concern should be to check for leaks - most likely around the regulator. Check along the length of the line first for any obvious damage or kinks. Check the flex lines. Maybe you have a separate shutoff valve inside the boat, or a solenoid-actuated shutoff - likely not with an older CNG setup. With the stove off, open the tank-top valve to pressurise the line. Use soapy water on the fittings and look for bubbles. When you first try to light the stove, it'll take a while as you have to first bleed the air from the line. Never leave the stove unattended, and shut off at the cylinder when not in use. CNG is safer than propane, but with some major downsides. The key difference between CNG and LPG is that you have compressed gas, not liquid - so a LOT LESS fuel. With CNG you have a bottle like a scuba tank, and those tanks are heavy! They are also a pain to find a place to swap out or fill. Expect to use your tank up pretty quickly. You may have a pressure gauge on your regulator - you'll see it drop pretty soon with use.
