  • It's time to get the boat ready to cross back to the Mediterranean, which means stocking up the dry stores and getting all the guest & crew meat and seafood onboard. Prepare for a lot of heavy lifting!
    Follow along on @motoryachtloon journey on youtube
    Thanks to the fantastic Steve for the drone footage, and Chef Dean for his footage.

      Just a quick bit of info. I grew up in a Commonwealth country, and buying "provisions" is a normal term. After living in the US for many years, I switched to using the term groceries. Provisioning has become groceries for me. Nina's Aussie background may be a factor that term is used? FYI only.

    As a Sous Chef it's crazy to see a Chef with this kind of consistent positive attitude. I'm sure she has her moments and days where she gets upset or angry but you can genuinely see how positive of a person she is. Must be a joy to work for.

    After spending 3 months on our 36' sailboat in the Bahamas, we came into Nassau for a weather window and supplies before heading over to Eleuthera and Abacos. Imagine my ecstasy when a young woman knocked on our boat - she and her Captain husband were finishing up an owner's yacht cruise in Bahamas and heading to central America for their next gig and she had bags full of fresh produce just flown in from Palm Beach for their 4 day cruise with owner family she needed to clean out. OMG - I had not seen fresh veggies like sprouts and snow peas for months. We were the only boat continuing sailing while others in the marina were heading back to FLA. I took as much as I could handle stuffing the reefer and cooking the rest as we gloomed down on fresh veggies. Love you Chefs!

    When I was watching you mark up the items in the freezer/ storage I thought it could be a good idea to also color code the tape/ tag (on the shelf/ baskets). For example; 1 color for guest food and another for crew food (if it's important to separate them for financial reasons).
    Also similar color code for special foods/ ingredients like gluten free etc, on items which near expiration (within 1 months) and other things which color code which can come inhandy with chef rotating and in a busy environment/ day. Just agree with Dean which colorcode the different things has to avoid confusion.
    Just some idea that pop up when watching this video.
    Enjoy your vacation and after that the Med season ❤
