My point? *Are you really going to put off sailing because you cannot
get a hot meal every time you want it? *Are you really going to put it
off because you might be a bit cold and you have to wear a parka?
I think sailing food consists of Pop Tarts for breakfast because you
can hold one while steering.
Lunch should be bread with peanut butter
Dinner, more bread and peanut butter.
Gatoraide
Coffee beans.

What else do you need? *No complications with an icebox, no need for a

They now make a cooler with wheels and a handle that extends. They
make vacuum bottles that will provide coffee that is too hot to drink
after 24 hours. No need to suffer, even in the smallest boat.

Ahh, but *that* would require Froggy to spend a few dollars.

Do you happen to have a brand name or URL on those "keep it hot for 24
hours" vacuum bottles?- Hide quoted text -

Thermos, dip****.

Yeah, which one keep coffee "too hot to drink" after 24 hours? Our
"Thermos" brand only keeps it that hot for 3-5 or so if we are lucky..

Thanks in advance...

I don't believe there is such a thing, unless it's got electric power.
A Mr. Coffee will keep it hot for 24 hours, if you leave it plugged
in. Acually, it's a lot better after about 12 hours, 24 might be a
little long.
