26M Gas BBQ Setups?

[FAAbaddog]

Hi folks,

Looking to pick up a SS gas (just the small propane bottle) BBQ for my 26M, any suggestions that have worked well for you would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Baddog - I have the Magma 15" dia marine kettle (WM #5925128) and am very pleased with it. With the optional rail mount, I can attach it to a stanchion in the cockpit area and sit and grill. I've had mine for 18 months with no problems. The Magma nested cookware works well with the grill also.

My set up
You will notice the BBQ is set up on my stern seat on my left and the gas canister holder top shows up on my right.

Very happy with my Magma 15" Kettle 2 grill. I like it better than my home grill as it cooks fast and evenly.

I mount it directly behind the captain's seat attached via the rail mount on the port arch. This ensures that it is never in the way when operating and it's easy to cook on in this position.

I do not remember anyone complaining about the unit they use. No matter what the make.

I use a Kuuma STOW N GO stainless steel gas grill. It has a 160 square inch cooking area, and puts out up to 13,000 BTU's It is attached to my starboard stern rail seat. Similar to how Q1 uses it on his port seat. It works great. If I am going ashore with it, I just unscrew it from its fitting, and it has little fold out legs so I can use it anywhere Its shape allows me store it in any of the bilge storage areas other than the aft bunk.

We absolutely LOVE our magma grill. Use it for everything from bacon and eggs, pizza and burgers.



I bought it from http://www.spinnakerjim.com

Cheapest prices I could find and he's got all the color matching accessories like covers and mounting brackets.
Yea, the magma is a great grill. No need to look any further.

we store the grill where the gas tank goes (only use one)
When we need it, take it out and mount it on the mount






The mount is mounted on an antenna mount mounted to the mast support.

Thanks

I have since modified it with a piece of plywood clamped on to carry our 1.5 hp outboard (about 11#) for our dingy! Double duty mod!

Can use the bbq with the captain's seat up or down. I usually use it with the seat down.

We don't store our grill. We just leave it out there and have the Magma cover that matches our sail covers. We have the stern seats and it clamps on and out of the way. Love that silly grill. We use it all the time and store the propane canisters in the motor well.

found a picture of the grill mount being used to carry our outboard for our dinghy.. works great having a mod doing double duty!

That's perfect. I need to do the same for our dingy motor.

Well BADDOG,

Has your question been answered

I told you earlier that I don't know of anyone who dislikes the BBQ they have. All you have to do is research which unit works best for you. Do you want a unit that has folding feet, so that it can be used on land. Do you want a unit that has attachments that allow you to make pizza. All of them work well on board.

Let us know what you decide on. I'm sure the posts will continue.

Remember guys, his motor weighs 11 lbs. (5kg). The 6hp motor for my dinghy weighs 40lbs.(18.2kg). Take that 11lb weight into consideration.
