600 AH battery bank is about 7200 watt-hours, and if you 50% cycle them it is 3600 WH capacity. Using only one of your induction burners, 900W for 20 minutes, you'd burn some 300 WH or nearly 10% of your battery power in one shot. A bit more with inverter overhead, especially as inverters have higher losses when you don't run them at maimum power.
It should work, but unless you are running that cooktop on shore power I'd guess your genset and genset fuel jugs are going to be your best friend, especially since other folks don't want to listen to a genset on the next boat. If it runs the batteries down even more...welll...you may just be trading one set of known issues (an old poor propane installation) for another.
So, the propane needs a new line run. And in typical boat fashion, everything is in the way, and probably fastened down with proprietary blind fasteners that you can't access.
There's something to be said for a plain PBJ, no cooking, no fuel required.<G>
