CaptK, I have not undertaken any changes yet and I may not have to.  Wife and I are over 70 and long-term exotic cruising is well beyond our horizons.  We are going to locally cruise until it is no longer fun or safe.  We have other choices for a backup cooker than the one in the photo...it was just the smallest and used a fuel we commonly had on board.

I have available in my store room a Sea Swing (either alcohol or spirits), Sea Cook (propane), Kenyon Homestead 2 burner alcohol stove, butane single burner range, a roarer gas burner, and the Peak stove.    I WILL NOT GO HUNGRY FOR WANT OF COOKING, EVER ;)

I do love my Sea Cook- and my 9 inch Wok is a perfect fit :)

This took two burners.  On the San Bernard River when the crabbing was really good.

You are correct, it is the health.  Our situation is that while we are still in good health, my wife's sailing skill and stamina are decreasing.  We will cruise until it is no longer fun and safe.  Hopefully many more years.  She will not be having any fun if she is worried about me getting into trouble doing old man hijinks.  I love her too much to imperil her because of my pride and bravado.

We are planning to get into the Colorado River Diversion Channel on the Texas Coast this spring to investigate the fishing and crabbing potential.  When the San Bernard mouth was open I could catch more crabs that we could eat in a month by the time I had the boat battened down at anchor.

I found this marine salvage consignment store.  Maybe it will help some of you guys outfit your boats.

Last weekend I uncovered part of my boat to access the cabin with a tape measure.
Defender had their yearly sale & wanted to buy a stove. Eno 2 burner, Origo gimbaled, to big & to tall. The Origo 2 burner counter mount, to wide. So I settled on the 2 burner Dickinson. Got the stove for under $500.00 & figured I spend half of that tearing the galley apart trying to make the other stoves fit.
I'm not happy unless I'm complaining about something.
I'm having a very good day!
