The Boater's Cookbook: 450 Quick & Easy Galley-Tested Recipes - Paperback

by Sylvia Williams Dabney (Author)

Eat well at every meal and enjoy the voyage.

Cooking on a small boat--sail or power--requires special attention few new boaters understand. Sylvia Williams Dabney is a longtime live-aboard sailor with more than sixty thousand offshore miles who understands the necessity of a well-stored pantry and loves collecting recipes from around the world. In The Boater's Cookbook, Sylvia shares everything anyone needs to know about creating stunning meals in a small boat galley.

Readers will find a comprehensive list of what gadgets, gear, and supplies to bring and how to store them in limited space aboard a fully functioning yacht galley--whether it's a twenty-seven-foot sailboat or a sixty-foot motor cruiser. Sylvia also offers up time-tested recipes by longtime sailors, and the stories that came along with them. Recipes are organized in accessible chapters:

Appetizers

Soups & Stews

Salads

Seafood

And Much, Much More

Boaters with limited space and cramped galleys can enjoy every meal if they know the tricks acquired by Sylvia Williams Dabney and the boaters she has met over a lifetime of cruising.
