Galley: Practical helpers for more comfort on board - lighting and cordless hoover

Magnetic fairy lights

Light creates a cosy atmosphere, but is also indispensable when preparing food. The 2-in-1 camping light with fairy lights also brightens up the barbecue area on the beach. The practical feature: the lamp can be hung up or attached to metal surfaces using the integrated magnet. The light also includes a ten metre long light chain. The lantern function and light chain can also be used simultaneously. Rechargeable via USB cable, waterproof, warm light colour. Price: 20 euros. More information: fritz-berger.de

Cordless hoover

Is the pantry full of flour and crumbs after baking? The easiest way to get rid of them is with a hoover. Even sand can be quickly vacuumed out of all the cracks between the floorboards after a visit to the beach. On board, a handheld vacuum cleaner with a rechargeable battery is the best choice. However, the choice is an exciting one, as you can save storage space and money here: If a cordless screwdriver from Makita is already on board, the vacuum cleaner can share the same battery and charger. The DCL283F model from Makita uses 18-volt batteries and comes with a suction tube and several attachments. However, the handheld device can also be used individually. This means the small appliance is easy to store, is always quickly to hand and is even quite affordable without an additional battery and its own charger. Price: 130 euros.
