  • An old family dish from the Syracuse, NY region. Except on a tiny boat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. With special guest.

    Looks like a perfect evening at sea. I hope all is well with you and Sampaguita.

    I see you don’t have the stove on gimbals. Can you cook while healing at 10-15 deg.? Looks like in this video your mostly flat.
    Will try to post some videos of my FLICKA-20 soon.

      No gimbals. What you see there is downwind so we're rolling alot. But I managed without it gimballing just fine. I only used one deep pan to cook everything and kept the contents shallow. So cooking at 10-15 degrees was accomplished.

    Would love to see a tour of cabin set up for long distance cruising. Safety at sea. Storage of food for long hauls. And esp. an alternative head / toilet?

      You'll see some glimpses of the cabin if you keep an eye out. But as my home for many years, that's my personal space and my interest in displaying it for viewing and judgment to the world for free on youtube is of little interest to me.
      I did add handrails to the ceiling over the settee which were invaluable. A Flicka moves alot and quicker than a bigger boat. They were added as handholds and as a way to add a lee net for sleeping on the settee. An alternative I came up with to a lee cloth. It worked great. An added advantage of this turned up. When I was standing up in front of the galley, and the boat unexpectedly rolled to starboard, the lee net caught my fall many times.

      I devised a way to keep the dropboards in.

      I easily stored over three months of food using the ice box and liner storage spaces.
      The head was the simplest. Just a bucket and an old toilet seat. Like a home toilet, I put a little water in the bucket. I almost exclusively used it in the cockpit. Always rolly, always bracing with my hands, and sometimes wet with the spray coming aboard. But if it's going to spill or slosh, better in the cockpit than in the cabin. And much simpler and safer to dispose of. Once you're away from the US mainland, it's bucket and chuck it.
      It was always challenging to move anything liquid from down below in the cabin up to the cockpit. Whether a cup of tea, coffee, soup, or the bucket, spillage was a definite possibility. The movement was incredible.

      @@sailingwithjosh5569 Thanks Josh. Very helpful insights. I use the settee to sleep as well. (Half body on settee, feet in V-berth). Understand not showing world your personal space. Will keep watching for sure! Keep on sailing..!! 🙏👍🏻

      Oh, you are not the only one. In this case it was about the butter though!
