Default I thought it was reasonable

Daughter: So dad, what do you do about coffee on your sailign trips.
Me: I make a big thermos.
Daughter: What about when it gets cold.
Me: It's still coffee.
Daughter: Yuk, cold coffee, why not make some hot coffee.
Me: I took out the stove cuz I think stoves aboard small sailboats
are dangerous, so we run out, then I have coffee beans.
Daughter: What? You crush them to make cold coffee?
Me: No, I eat em, they taste good.
Daughter: Thats disgusting, forget it.

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.
apples
What else do you need? No complications with an icebox, no need for a
stove, very simple.

You'd be a fun guy to cruise the Caribbean with!

There's really no excuse for not having decent chow on board. I
always used to pride myself on how well the racing crew got fed using
just a one burner SeaSwing propane stove. The secret is to make it
all up in advance and freeze it into plastic bags holding one meal
each. Throw the frozen bags into the cooler and that helps to keep
the soda cold as well.

Crank up the diesel and heat stuff up on the manifold (old trucker
trick)


Aren't there MREs that heat themselves? I may break down and buy a
magma grill/stove that hangs on the stern rail.

Yup, that's the way to do it. We are very careful during the race
weekends to hydrate and eat properly. Not to mention we "eat up" to the
weekend during the week to prepare too. Now I doubt that Froggie is
going to compete at the level we do on the track, but if the **** hits
the fan on the water, you want it all there with you. On the track we
could just pull over

What kind of dope are you smoking. I have an almost 20 foot Parker CC
