I know this is probably a big no no, but i love the weber go anywhere charcoal bbq. on my bluebird i had my bbq stowed on the rear rail, and when at anchor, id unstow and take it up to the foredeck, light it with my thick wooden chopping board underneath to protect the deck. I cooked legs of lamb etc on this thing on the foredeck. i know it sounds dangerous, but if you keep an eye on it and the lid on once the coals are ready, its really safe and cooks amazing food. It also negates the need for gas bottles on board that you need with a bbq. I have the coals already in the bbq, and when im done, you close the holes and the bbq goes out.
I guess im tryna make do with what i have. I love charcoal bbqs. i dont own a gas one nor intend to. just got a massive weber kettle for home, so im thinking of putting the weber go anywhere on the tophat. i had 2 but gave the other weber to the bluebird buyer last year, leaving us just with the 1 for home. now theres 2 for home, so 1s going on the boat!
Please someone tell me this is stupid, or irresponsible etc!!! I dunno. You guys here do alot of cruising etc with sound boats. im a bit of a pikey so its good to hear thoughts from rational, responsible , experienced, older people!

THe other great thing about the weber is you can take it on the beach and have bbqs there, or anywhere. Thats why its called the "go anywhere!"
