Barbecue For Seasonal Cruising
Ғылым және технология
I like to cook a lot of food at home and freeze it in small amounts that can be thawed and microwaved when on the boat. The microwave can re-heat the food using very little power because it is only on for a few minutes.
When I barbecue, I use one batch of coals to cook a lot of food because it tastes a lot better from the grill. I can cook a bunch of steaks, then grill a bunch of bratwurst and then another batch of sausages. By then, the coals will die down but can still grill some hot dogs. I ate one steak and divided the rest into individual portions in baggies to be frozen for cruising this spring.

Barbecue is always good.
This video made me HUNGRY ;) Unfortunately it's not the right weather for barbecue this time of year where i live (central europe). Will have to wait a couple of weeks before i can start the grill again!

Try this when it gets warm enough to grill. Its really nice to have the convenience of microwaving dinner in two minutes and enjoy the taste of barbecued food.
Not a related subject I wanted to tell you about. It is received wisdom that polyester glue doesn't work on wood because of tannins or whatever in the wood. I have always doubted this. Your message to me about putting the wax in resin on the last coat of fiberglass. This triggered me to think. The glue in a wood to wood joint is being exposed to oxygen on both sides. From its point of view, it may as well be sitting in fresh air. The solution remove the oxygen and then it will kick. ie vacuum bag it and really suck it down hard. So potentially you could have a glue as good as epoxy but way cheaper. I am living in a half completed dugout stealth cabin so I don't have a lot of scope to test this just yet.

Thanks for mentioning that. I hadn't thought much about it but I've worked on a lot of poorly maintained old boats. What I've observed is wood that has been painted with polyester resin and just left that way will have the resin chip off after a few years. When it goes on, it looks like it soaks into the wood and I imagine it making a very strong bond, but when its old and chipping off, it looks like old paint that curls up, lifting a chip of material off the surface. When flowing the paint on, you wouldn't imagine this happening later either. I almost never see this kind of failure in places where gelcoat has been put over the polyester resin. I know that ultraviolet light breaks down polyester resin, making it brittle. Gelcoat is made of polyester resin but has zinc oxide and possibly other stuff in it to protect from ultraviolet. It degrades much slower because the sun can only attack the very surface, so it chalks off slowly if you don't maintain it with car wax or something. Even glass cloth saturated with resin will detach from wood if left in the sun unprotected by gelcoat.
