What exactly do you mean by "when?"



Scotty makes a good point. In our last summer with Alien, we visited 3
marinas on just one 3 day sail....Centreport, Norwalk and Port Jeff. So
the electric cooker can make a lot of sense even for a local sailor.

Best electric cooker around is an electric skillet...you can even
bake cupcakes in one....that and an electric pressure cooker

Yep... no doubt about it... "HF" capability would be most desirable
if cruising off shore any considerable distances.

Needless to say... a communication system linked to satellite would
also be nice... but very expensive for the average cruiser.

Is that your tail number, Bill? If so, what kind/type of aircraft do you
fly?

Have you ever tried "fasting"?

I have an inverter, but still don't think an electric skillet is a useful
thing on the hook, which is where we typically are when cruising. That's
what propane is for. :-)

I was referring to when on the dock since on the hook is not a
familiar term for Robbie....

I think you guys left before we got the new fiberglass dock boxes throughout
the marina. They are really cheap and will break if sat upon. And they
slope toward the main dock, making cooking on them a problem. You'd need a
table for the electric skillet. Another one of Eric's bargain
"improvements."

They had them on B and C but hadn't replaced them on A yet when we
left....yes, they were POS...
but then, many marinas don't allow any type of grill or cooking on
the dock. Where we're at now, you cannot have a grill on the dock.
Same was true at MYC.

Shucks, the bobspit spends most his time flopping on hooks as the
Commode.

No it isn't... LP.

It's my F.C.C. amateur radio license call sign. I understand
your inquiry though... now that I think about it... a lot of U.S.
aircraft have that N6 prefix as well. :-)

In amateur radio... the alpha/numeric prefix is a geographical de-
signator indicating your base of operation. N6 is California... a KH6
would be Hawaii... so on and so forth. Don't know if this is the case
with aircraft though.

Best regards
