Loose crockery clattering about on board can quickly become a nuisance. A magnetic system from Silwy is designed to secure cups and glasses in the cupboard. Also: an adapter from Cadac connects the barbecue to the large Campingaz on-board gas cylinder.
More flexible barbecuing
Less mess, reaches the right temperature faster: gas barbecues are becoming increasingly popular amongst sailors too. One minor drawback: with the 450-gram cartridges, you end up with a second system on board alongside the conventional, permanently fitted gas system for use in the galley. With an adapter hose including a pressure regulator, the barbecues can also be connected to the large Campingaz on-board cylinder, which is refillable and thus reduces waste. What’s more, the crew don’t have to keep track of the gas levels in two separate systems, you save storage space and, depending on where you buy them, money too. The ‘HP to LP adapter kit’ with an 85-centimetre-long hose is available, for example, from barbecue manufacturer Cadac for 34.95 euros. Further information: cadacinternational.com
Magnetic holders for crockery
With Silwy products, nothing rattles around in the galley anymore. Metal mats are stuck to the cupboards, to which the manufacturer’s glasses, cups and other items attach securely with magnets. Boat builders such as Bavaria fit these mats as standard, which is designed to prevent dirt build-up and save space. From 60 euros. Further information: silwy.de
