Nothing wrong with a good cup of java, I love coffee. I use a perk coffee
maker, with the old alcohol stove.

But .. I was just thinking ..

How did old Joshua Slocum get all the way around the world without any of
these fancy things we yachtspeople
have today?

Guess you can tell I am working on the galley/salon. :-)

Being addicted to drip coffee, I have been looking for a good coffee maker
with a thermal carafe that would fit in the galley without taking up much
space and not end up on the deck. Finally found this:

at Defender.

Anyone seen one of these in person? Most built in coffee makers run two
boat bucks or more. I am wondering if this thing is built well enough to
hold up.

"...I studied with diligence Neptune's laws,
and these laws I tried to obey..." [Joshua Slocum]

Almost like poetry, but it was clipped from the middle
of a paragraph in his book. True, it isn't how he managed
without modern conveniences, but simply how he made it
around the oceans.
