Thanks Christian! Have to say, that metal spatula caught my eye right away. I’d never hear the end of that at home. Might just have to try it on board one of these days!
"Relationships" can be, um, adversely affected by the misapplication of a metal utensil to a non-stick coated pan...!

Nice. The quiet cabin at the end, the gently rocking stove seemed like the boat breathing.
You've probably addressed this elsewhere, but how much propane do you plan for one way? Do you collect rain water?

Re propane, I go six weeks livaboard on one 2.5 gallon tank. And it’s not empty then…..

Christian, as a long time consumer of SPAM I have to take exception on how you prepare a meal with it. My preferred way is to pan fry slices (not chunks) throw some cheese over the slice in the pan, cover to melt. Lay it all on a slice of artisan bread with some dark brown mustard. Yum! Leave the hearts of palm for the camel.
That ranks right up there with: "Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli"
(A bit of Godfather-ish thread drift...)

My parents had a pre-nuptial agreement. if vacation was to be spent in a tent or on the boat, Dad had to prepare the meals. I’ve always associated a can of sardines, saltine crackers, instant oatmeal with raisins, and scrambled eggs and spam with adventure and the very best of times. Imagine my surprise that the admiral doesn’t feel the same.

We just finish the first half (sitting in a transient slip typing this) of our first overnight trip on the bay but before we did we made sure to stock up on “boat bacon”! Three sometimes hard to find half-cans which are ideal for two people unless of course the other person hates SPAM which then just leaves more for me. These cans are 25% less sodium like that going to make it healthy.
