Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

Thanks for the tips--I really like the idea of of a work surface on the gimballed stove, and I'm definitely going to have to work the belt harness into the story. :)

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

I definitely plan to get in some serious nautical reading before I undertake the writing of the sailing part of the story--good for familiarizing myself with terminology and seeing how other writers...

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

I guess all that wasn't funny at the time, but it makes for an excellent story!

So, from what you say, and what I've heard repeatedly on this thread, is that even if someone isn't prone to...

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

The microwave really didn't have a fighting chance of making it into the story...the rail-mounted grill, though...hmmm...

One of these days, I'm actually going to cook on a boat and not just write...

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

The microwave seems like a good idea, but back in 1984, they were pretty bulky and heavy--not that much room in the galley. I do really like the idea of a rail-mounted grill--very cool idea, as long...

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

Oh my goodness--mustn't let my cook see that picture! She's not allowed to reconsider--the plot is counting on her boarding that boat! For her sake, though, I will make sure there are "fiddles"...

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

The dry ice sounded kind of scary to me--just something I read, but wasn't sure. I've never handled it, so wouldn't know about the smell. Thanks!

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

I read someplace that when you buy sugar/flour/pancake mix/dehydrated goods (potatoes), put the contents in non-metallic packages and nuke them in the microwave for 15 seconds on the defrost cycle,...

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

I appreciate your saying that--I drive myself a little crazy with the details, and until I'm done with the writing, I'm never sure just which details will end up in the story. It's for...

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

That's kind of what I thought. Thanks for confirming it! :) Seems it would be smartest to keep the really cold/frozen stuff closer to the bottom and plan meals accordingly.

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

Can anyone tell me, in this particular galley, is that a top-access refrigerator/freezer in the far, lower right-hand corner of the top picture? Do they share the same compartment?

Re: Need Cooking-While-Under-Way Advice for a Work of Fiction

I don't plan on springing any leaks (not me, the boat), but that would make things interesting, especially using sanitary napkins to sop them up! Ha!:biggrin:
