"Amazed at the variety and number of recipes and, best of all, the fabulous tips for food storage when refrigeration is lacking or very limited. The best marine or RV/camping cookbook I've seen."

"This is a great book for those on a boat and those at home. Great recipes and they are ideal for a sailing trip. We took it with us and now back at home, I use it daily."

"Although I am not in the vicinity of salt water and it's delicacies, there are plenty of other recipes I am eager to try. Cooking, storage and space is limited on a boat and recipes seem to be streamlined for buying and preparing food"

"Excellent book for a new cruiser. We are largely doing day sails, and then back to the marina, so we have lots of access to food and electricity, but if you were in the Caribbean, the info on provisioning would be ideal. Everything you could want to know is included. Very good recipes, with substitution lists in case you are short of something. An ideal book..." Read more

"I bought it for a gift but got hooked on the the first few pages. The person I got it for loved it. That's what counts. Gave good advice as to what to stalk up on if going in a long journey."

MG star-alt star-alt star-alt star-alt star-alt

"Cooking on a boat is definitely different than cooking on land. And cooking on a boat in a foreign country is even trickier. With a great mix of recipes, common sense and helpful details this book is the perfect addition to any galley."

"When you buy this cook book, if you are a sailor, you do not have to be a liveaboard, you will find this book so useful, it is like having one and a half cookbooks in one cover, it is not just the recipies but the added information that i find great, even in the temperate climate of UK. Thank you to both authors for such a book, it was a long time coming but..." Read more

"As a beginner sailor, future liveaboard/cruiser, and someone who is terrible in the kitchen ... this book is a must for me! It provides everything from preparing your boat galley for comfort and efficiency, what food products they recommend (even if you don't have refrigeration), and simple recipes aboard. The authors have years of experience cooking on a bo..." Read more

"This is a wonderful cookbook for all levels of cooks. If you've never cooked, they give lots of explanations and since it is aimed at boat owners it also lists tons of substitutions for many recipes. Buy the book AND check out the website."

"Having been a HUGE fan "The Boat Galley" blog ([...]) combined with the fact that I am more or less hopeless in the galley of my own boat, I was super excited to see this book coming out and was lucky enough to be able to download a sneak peak. Carolyn and Jan have created a practical and incredibly useful guide for a boat galley that I anticipate will becom..." Read more

"I found the information to be very useful and practical with a lot of "why didn't I think of that?" moments. Storage ideas are adaptable to boat, RV, and home living. I hope this comes out in a Kindle version. Check out the Boat Galley.com blog for more ideas and photos."

"I got the book for my travels by RV. There was of course some information that wasn't as applicable as it would have been on a boat but I got a lot of tidbits that I can use both in the RV and at home. I am a reluctant cook but since my husband has a number of health issues, I have found that I must cook more from scratch than I have before as manufactured f..." Read more

Steve Proctor star-alt star-alt star-alt star-alt star-alt

"Jan and Carolyn deserve much praise for this solid reference book. Every word of every recipe on every page is valued. While many cookbooks these days are filled with pictures, this is no coffee table book for who has room for something like that on a boat let alone the galley! By some miracle, they fit over 800 "from scratch" recipes that can be made with t..." Read more
