suggestions for a stove?
 

How big is your battery bank? Inverters take a lot of
juice, don't they. I think you'll still want some kind of
stove for the cabin, even if it's a one burner propane.
Handy when it's cold and/or raining outside. You'll already
have bottles along for the Magma. A lot of times when I
sail late into the night ( AM) and I'm too tired to 'cook'
I'll just warm up a can of soup before hitting the sack
But I guess if you have enough battery , a micro will do
those things easier and faster.

Thanks Jeff and Scotty,
I actually have the Magma I bought for my Starwind, so I
will use a rail
grill. I like the idea of the pvc tank storage too.
I'm thinking I wouldn't use an oven below (like Scotty)
but would make
mostly coffee and soup type meals. We typically don't eat
too fancy even at
home. I'm considering a small microwave since the boat has
the AC inverter.
Maybe with that and the grill, it'd be enough.

Scout-
I was going to suggest the same thing. We used our old
BBQ a lot, and
this year I got the Magma II. Its a major improvement,
with the hinged
lid and lighter. Also, it never once blew out. In
fact, it was flawless.

The old one was plumbed to the main propane, but I
didn't bother with this
so far - it too easy to just use the small bottles.

The stove below does get used; since we sort of move on
board for the
summer, and always stay at anchor, so its hard to do a
quick b'fast run.
Coffee, eggs, & toast down below in the morning, but
dinner is on the BBQ.

BTW, I don't mind having the propane on board - our tank
locker is in the
stern, well ventilated, and the solenoid is always
turned off immediately.
However, if we had simpler needs, I might consider the
Origo.

Hey Scout, sure was nice out this week. Do you have,
or
plan to get a BBQ? Like a rail mount Force 10, or
Magma for
the stern rail? I have a propane one and do about 90%
of my
cooking on it. Highly recommend getting one.
I have a CNG, 2 burner stove and oven. Never used the
oven.
Mostly use the stove for coffee, occasional cooked
breakfast
or a bowl of soup at night. I carry a one burner
Coleman
propane stove just in case I run out of CNG on a trip.
I store the bottles in the cabin. My slip neighbor
mounted a
PVC pipe with glued bottom cap and loose top cap on his
stern rail and it holds two bottles.

Might be a good idea to coat the threads with grease or
something as long term outside storage may cause them to
rust a little. I'm just guessing.

Funny story, when my neighbor first made his, he didn't glue
the bottom cap ( why, He didn't say) , and the first bottle
he dropped in went right through into the water. :o

- when is an insult
okay in a face-to-face social setting - NEVER?

WTF? You've *never* insulted someone face-to-face?

You *are* a pansy, no wonder you can't cut it in the Corp.
world.

Yes - rarely but when someone had it coming.

First - you're such a dickhead - and working for 13 years means I can't
cut it, huh? You're a genius aren't you? And there's is only one way to
climb the corporate ladder - you have to be a scumbag that ****s over
your co-workers - thaat's not for me, but I'm willing to bet that's
right up your alley. And since I work with people like you - I want to
get out so that I don't get infected with the same low integrity and
morality. But you wouldn't know anything about that - would you.

All that you're concerned is getting off on being a dick -0 and I'm
sure you're that way in person with people in your life. You need to
relax 'cause you aew way too uptight. Man - what happened - who hurt
you? Wife leave you or does it go back to your childhood. You're a
nightmare with some serious issues - and that at least makes me smile -
knowing that you're a mess - couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

I've had my own business for 31 years. You know nothing

Wife leave you

yes, but she'll be back , soon as school's out.

It;s rude to use crude language in a public forum...also to make ad
hominem attacks...you have a rather duplistic set of values, Jim.
You set yourself up as a target and then "bang", revert to attack. A
nice person would either laugh off Scotty's attack, turn the other
cheek, or try to discover just what it was that set the other off. Now,
why don't we all just go back to discussing sailing. What other
questions do you have? Have you ever been sailing? On waht type of
boat? In what waters?

OK. This week a friend pointed out some things that helped
my boat to sail better. I had the jib leads too far forward
, and by heading up farther than I normally do, the boat
leveled off better. Don't know if my VMG was better or not,
but the ride was a lot smoother, with a lot less weather
helm.

Makes for a flatter sail...in more ways than one...I leave all the VMG
discussion to the guys stewing in their mathematical hazes...it's not
necessary for just sailing around...I like to tweak sails to get more
out of them and to get a higher point, but making sailing into a physics
or math problem just doesn't interest me...I'm sure that some would be
aghast at this but hey, I sail because I like to sail...it's more a
visceral thing for me than some problem to be solved. Got enough
problems to solve in real life without looking for them while sailing.

daysailing, going nowhere for an hour .

Wherever Scotty is...that's nowhere.
