    Whilst not sailing related, I paddle open canoes (and sail them too) but I have a plastic waterproof tool box that I use as my "Wanagan" (camp kitchen). Its good to see your ideas for food prep and consumption, as they often spark the imagination for improvements to my own setup. That stove is just the ticket for your situation. I have recently converted to Trangias, if only because I have a better idea of how much fuel I have left, rather than shaking a gas cannister and estimating.
    Really enjoy your videos as you have a very nice relaxed delivery. Keep them coming.

Perhaps while we're all locked away, you could explain things to us beginners like: Where to get a boat, what kind of boat to look for, what qualifications are needed, what type of navigation aids do you use (if any). What are the regulations, laws, etc. we should be aware of in the UK (and Europe). What is the minimum kit you recommend for a new starter, etc..

    The meth spirits is all we can obtain here, and the sharp smell was a bit bothersome. I filled the tanks by holding them on their side, to get a full filling.

    Hi Roger. I've watched a lot of your videos but haven't commented yet. Thanks for everything you've done. You've inspired me to go dinghy cruising and it should hopefully become reality pretty soon. Since you asked for suggestions at the end of your video: what about how you go about preparing a cruise? Talk about researching tides, routes, weather forecasts, launching ramps, identifying anchorages/stopping points. Where do you get your information? How do you make it into a plan? A second idea would be to talk about the navigational equipment you have on board: GPS? What type? Charts? Chartplotter? Bearing compass? A third idea would be safety equipment (beyond the obvious: anchor, oars and preparation): VHF? EPIRB? Lifejackets? A fourth idea would be around clothing: footwear, keeping warm, keeping dry, what do you do when it rains en route? You've probably covered it all in your book, but I haven't read it yet ;-) All best, Joshua

    My box, very similar in size and layout, is designed around a large Trangia with a gas conversion to run off modern mini camping gas cartridges (with the threaded connectors with built in valves). It's so much more efficient and controllable than the standard alcohol burner. I've used Origos in the past and while I've nothing against them, my set up is easily a third the price of what they demand 2nd hand. I've also started to switch to coated aluminium, either hard coated or non-stick (Trangia offer both). The health risk of prolonged use of bare aluminium is well documented. One great addition has been a children's silicone baking set at Lakeland. For £11 you get five half-sized utensils, three of which are spatula, 'spoonula' and a flat flipper/turner. Great for non-stick pans, easy to store, plus a well scraped pan massively cuts down on washing up! Also, if you're not a chef and fed up of the usual instant food, try French military rations (search ebay for 'RCIR'). They're not cheap but they keep for years, contain all you need for 24 hours and the quality is superb!

    • @RogerRoving

      In fact there is no health risk from aluminium. The allegation is based on a scientific misunderstanding.

    I was going to ask you how you extinguished the stove then you showed us its workings and all became clear. Because you turned a knob and like a gas stove , it went off. But with an alcohol stove it needs to be starved of oxygen, and the knob clearly shows that it operates a sort of aperture that does that. A very nice stove, thanks for the video.

    • @tommypetraglia4688
      @tommypetraglia4688 4 года назад

      Turn the knob to close the damper which also act as a cover to the flame hole in the canister. This makes enough of a seal to prevent the fuel from evaporating when the stove is stowed away

    I can't believe that I watched your video a whole year ago. So much has changed, so much the same. I've been chatting to mates in Oz about their galley boxes which must have brought up an incentive for YT to get me to look over your video once again.
    Anyway, I noticed that you had a butane lighter which we no longer use. Given we spent a lot of time camping during Covid we acquired a lot of nifty devices which not we can't live without. We have thrown away many of those gas lighters. I'm not sure if they could be refilled or not, but we've never tried.
    What we have converted to is these cheap electric lighters. Recharageable types via USB and so far none thrown out. Simply plugged into a power bank or some sort of outfil that allows for USB charging and away you go. In my opinion they are a lot safer and a lot faster to light. We use them on our Thetford gas stove with our camper and with our usual gas BBQ and heater at home. At a pinch, they can light a mozzie coil, although it does seem to clag up the electrodes. Anyway, I'm sure that you could get them in the UK. Here they cost around $8-9 including delivery off Ebay. I'm sure that would mean around 4pounds there. Anyway, for what it's worth.

    Thorough design of these kits! I was lucky enough to locate a used Origo just last month. $100 US. Haven’t tried it yet. I noticed Roger that you aren’t using the canister cap which is placed over the opening to prevent fuel evaporation when not in use. I cut one out of a silicone baking sheet liner. I’d be happy to send you one.
