Re: Propane Grill on My Boat
I had the same problem so over the winter I built a portable galley for my 20 foot cuddy. Being a caterer provided me with some culinary background. I built a box approximately the size of a cooler....say 20 x 12 x 15. ..... hinged it with a lid being about 3 inches tall....When that lid is flipped open I attached a table top cooking unit that runs on a cannister of fuel....bolted that puppy down....next to it I constructed a storage area for my knifes, tongs, spoons, spatulas, etc.....underneath the open lid I put a 3/4 inch plumbers flange and got a piece of 3/4 inch pipe to serve as a leg brace....so now I've got this cooking stove....back to the main box.....I cut an old cutting board to fit and nailed a 1 x 1 ledger board so that the cutting board is level with the open box.....I also attached another coleman burner to the outside of the box so I really could boil some water...... anyway.....I keep a saute pan, a sauce pan with lid, extra fuel bottles and small quanitites of spices in the main box.....(by the way small quanitities I mean....just an inch or two in old Target Medicine bottles....waterproof that way).....clean everything up...close the lid.....lock it down and then I took an old cushion an snapped it on top so that I've got another place to sit when I want......if this rube goldberg concept makes sense to you I send along some photos.....From a menu standpoint allow me to recommend "the two burner gourmet' by Tery L. Searfoss.... It's about having great food, with little equipment....life is so much more than hamburgers!
