Boat Cooker Safety at Sea

Welcome to the 'Safety @ Sea' section of BoatCooker.com, the site for boat cookers, galley cooking info and online bargains. Here we take a look at some common sense safety tips for the the boat cooker user and owner.

Always have any cooker professionally installed, serviced and repaired by an appropriately qualified and regulated marine services engineer.

Keep a vigilant eye open for any wear or malfunction in your fuel delivery and cooking system.

Never ignore what may be potential problems.

Monitor possible fuel traps. Remember that gas can build up in the bilges and ignite without warning.

Keep all potentially flammable items, such as curtains, tea-towels and paper, well away from the cooker and any other naked flame.

Wherever and whenever possible try to confine cooking duties to those times when the boat is safely ancored on a sheltered mooring. Gimballed cookers may lessen the heeling effects of a boat under passage but cooking at anchor will always be a safer, more relaxed and simpler affair.
