I need some ideas / tips on things that can be done aboard for
storage -
both for people who just 'week-end' and for the cruisers.

for food storage, dried food (fruit, veggies,
oysters/clams/fish/shrimp/meat)
stores in a fraction of the space as fresh (and costs less to boot).

Also, vacuum packing reduces space needs for food and things like
blankets/clothing/etc.

For fresh drinking water, 2-liter soda bottles filled with tap water can
be
stored in all kinds of out of the way spaces.

You will have to empy out the bottles first

You can get 2 litres into a 1 litre bottle if you boil it down first. Then
pop it in the freezer to keep it fresh. When de-winterising next season,
just nuke it in the microwave and add water (dilute to tase).- Don't
over
do it or it will become too runny - and off you go. Not only will you be
saving money, you will be helping save the environment too.

We skip that and buy dehydrated water @ Sam's Club.
Over the years we have found that if we preheat the envelopes of dehydrated
water in our on board propane powered microwave for 19 seconds on 70% power
they reconstitute much faster, and require 17.4% less water to do so.

What the heck is dehydrated water? Isnt there just nothing left when
you dehydrate water?
