- Episode #236 : Boat Projects : reNewable Galley
Hello Friends,
On this episode I introduced you guys to my new all electric galley! I up cycled my old alcohol stove and converted it into a super modern induction range / convection oven. I am very excited to be able to have all of my cooking fuel be renewable!
I will be doing a follow up video soon when I am done documenting the power usage of the first week.

My Friend ,You are a Legend , Thanks for posting all this Info on your Electrical setup and All Electric Galley .
Sooo good!!!! You have truly inspired me to not throw out our old set up,, simply convert it.. Thank you James for taking the time to show us how. Now I have to get the hubster to sit and watch with me in detail.. Thank you
My set up has worked perfectly for me for 2 years now !!!
The idea you had to convert old oven to fit new worked out beautifully. Like it was meant to be.
very good stuff. I will be doing this to my old alcohol stove/oven. Thanks for the great idea and walk through of the set up!
Nice work James, you're gonna love it man. A strong LiFePo battery bank and a big inverter is the key to success. Thanks for the mention and the link to our video bro. Two-plus years now and still going strong.... you won't regret it.
I am super stoked on the upgrade, yours came out awesome and I am glad to hear y’all are still liking it 👍🏻
you might want to keep a a spare electrical line to replace that moving one. metal fatigue will happen to the strains in the cord over time from the swinging. i'd suggest finding a way to keep the stove from swinging while it isn't in use and to occasionally feel the cord that has been bending to see if it is warm. if it is warm, you will need to replace that cord with your spare. to not replace it means it might short well enough to start a fire in your boat. there are also chain sheaths you can attach to electrical wires that move often that will spread out the bending location of a wire across more of the wire making that wire last longer. this is something talked about in the 3d printing world quite a bit because the gantry of the 3d printer is always moving and there needs to be electricity to power the hot end and the parts cooling fan as well as a motor if it is a direct drive 3d printer. thats a bunch of wires that can metal fatigue into creating a house fire.
Good choice of royalty free music. 😁
Thanks! You gave me an idea how to change into induction on my boat.
When I first heard of electric cooking on a sailboat I was skeptical to say the least. Now after seeing you and others promoting it, I'm becoming a believer.
This project really gives us a look at your mechanical know how. Along with your language skills, Your channel is a very good information source. Thank you.
This is a fantastic way to get rid of Liquid Fuel. Its also a cost efficient one considering the price of DA atm. I was thinking it was time to go Propane but I just didn't feel safe and that can be a hassle when out of the States. This will definitely be my next upgrade to my Boat. Ty James for sharing all the hard work.
I have had it for over a year and a half now and it’s been amazing, fantastic upgrade
Cool setup! Can you run the stove and the oven together, and how many amps would it draw? What would be the first thing to trip if there were too much current? A fuse, or the inverter?
Brilliant work. First class
Very interesting video. I also will say that you really have the pirate look going. All you need now is an eye patch.
James horrible wife left him! He can be grateful it wasn't Amber Heard!🤐
I really appreciate that you install redundant systems wherever you can. Very smart.
awesome i too use induction top... best thing since slice bread :)
clean work
Cool build thanks James
Very cool. Nice refit.😊
Looks great! Well done Captain.
The music you inserted while showing the walk around was very fitting! lol
Nicely Done!
I'm totally impressed. Good work
Looks great. The ONLY thing I might have done different is to terminate the power line coming from the inverter to the back of the oven cabinet as a fixed female receptacle. That way all the moment would be on a short and easily replaceable line that plugs into that.
Nice job & presentation, pretty much answering my questions as you went along
Looks great 👍
Very nice work! Great electrical set up! Keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing...🙏🏻👍
amazing fabrication work turning that old gimbal into something more functional.
Can't beat a hot scone at 3pm with a coffee, while looking at the ocean.
Looks great James, damn clever repurposing the old stove and range. Very nice.
I love it see it converted to renewable energy
Looks good with the teak.
Very nice job. Best one i have seen yet. Youre almost ready for the apocolypse. Once you get a watermaker youre ready.
I love that music when taking a look at the set up. Thinking black and white movie. Have yoi done your cooking videos and electric loads that I should be looking for. Thank you
Nice work James. I believe you're going to love that setup. Also, it goes well with the boat... Nice combination of old & new.
Awesome video! I'm really looking forward to seeing more details on the average power consumption and battery levels in different sun/cooking scenarios (cooking frequently on sunny days, cooking less frequently on cloudy days, etc.). In theory you could cook large meals on sunny days, giving you leftovers to have on cloudy days without draining your batteries.
Based on the math, your total battery bank is 12v * 400Ah = 4800Wh. Using a stovetop at 1500w for 15 mins (1/4 of an hour) utilizes about 375Wh. So you'd only be running your battery down about 8% for each 15 min cooking session (plus any losses in power conversion). On a fully sunny day, you'll probably get about 330W out of a 400W array, so you'd only need a little over an hour of solar (to generate 375Wh) to make up for that 15 min cooking session. Not too bad!
Nice job! Looking forward to seeing how the set up performs v’s your expectations. We’re hoping to go down this route in the next couple of years as funds allow.
It’s been one week since installed and it’s been amazing. Power consumption is totally do able.
clever job ;)
Will exactly do it like that! Extra Inverter for the galley, great! 😊
I'm building a combination induction cooktop & microwave/air-fryer/convection-oven to hang on my existing gimbles.
My problem was that the old propane range/stove wouldn't fit through any hatch on the boat. I had to disassemble it.
So my new design will be modular, screwed together in the boat.
This is SO BAD ASS!! Really beautiful work Captain! Enjoy the pizza parties!
I had a similar cooktop from this brand at my old house for a couple of years. It worked great and I would recommend it, as long as you can keep the top extremely clean so the touch-sensitive controls work.
I love this conversion and I’ve been wondering how to do the same. Thank you 🙏
Can’t wait to see the usage on solar panels and batteries… Nice setup
Great job, it looks professional. I have the exact same alcohol stove. I was going to switch to propane but now I may look into what you're doing.
Dam- this is a huge upgrade- cant wait till I can afford lithium for this very reason- solid job- thanks for sharing!
Great information, but the rivet nut! I had no idea. Thanks for that. I’m getting ready to remove and replace my perfectly good 4 burner regal with a tiny wood stove, and a gimbaled 2 burner induction top in its place. Big fan!
Well done hope you enjoy, and it works perfectly for you. 🍺🍺🍺
i was about to comment on running your motor to charge but you immediately covered that. what a great video. I need to redo all the solar that was installed by the previous owner of my boat and i walso want to upgrade my diesel galley to something more functional so this video was pretty informational thanks!
Perfect description of your install. It looks like a factory built unit that would cost a lot of money. Now I will have to buy a rivet nut installation tool. I think your luck is changing😎👍
That some TASTY WORK there James AIR FRYER GAME CHANGER bought one last year best yolk I ever bought make your own French Fries, Burgers, chicken just add a squirt of One Fry Job Done
James. Re the pot- rails, I suggest just buy a piece of steel flatbar 1/8” by 1/2” by 36” . Measure it to the right length , Put a 90 degree bend in end
And hrs bolt it to the existing rail.
Aloha,
The induction technology is very old, thanks Nicolie Tesla.
Great job with this project.
Mahalo
Right on Brother, Good Job. \m/
Great video, I'd love to do something similar on my boat someday and look forward to hearing about your experiences with it.
The "Benny Hill" segment of you disassembling it was great, too! 🤣
nice
It looks like you can shorten the pot holder rails where they attach, to bring that front and back rail in closer. Then the the holders should work fine.
That’s a great IDEA!!!
Great video with clear explanation. Innovative method to 'Up Cycle' the old stove! Like that you also have back ups with BBQ and JetBoil. Where do you store the gas canisters for the Jet Boil?
Looks great Would like to it working with mats
awsome job and you are gong to love that air fryer and oven i have one and the best money spent in my life and the savings on electric is fanominal
nice!
MAJOR VITTLE COOKING HERE NICE
great upgrade, pot holders could reach from the side maybe instead of the front?
And, of course, Sail Life made his own gimbal stove thingy for a pure electric setup. Be sure there's some chafe/cut protection on the plugin strip's cord since it's ziptied on the back side.
Fwiw you can seat a rivnut using a bolt and a spacer and a nut. I don't use the rivnut threads to seat it, because it is potentially hard on the threads. Instead I use the bolt threads with a nut pushing on the spacer/pullingon the rivnut. Quick and small so rivnut can be installed in tight quarters, also inexpensive and always available. Nice upcycle on the stove, looks decent and certainly nicer than new crap.
Thanks for this comment!!! Never thought of that !!!!
seen a video of someone talking about batteries and solar. they mentioned that whatever battery bank size you have, double it for solar setup for proper charging. so basically, you have 400ah, should have at least 800w of solar.
That’s not possible on my boat. I had zero issues keeping my batteries topped up until I left the tropics and headed to NZ
Great job, I think there's a cooking channel on the way or a cook book post cruise.
I really like it.
Is that wired with 15 amp cord end and power strip, 15 amp breaker?I'm just thinking your oven and both cooktops will exceed your wiring, may want to do a 20 amp circuit as in land based kitchens if it applies. Watch those power strips. Again great job thank you for sharing.
Excellent work James! Right on, been loving following your story and your path in life. i was just curious to know (and I know it is a personal subject) but have yiy heard anymore from your x at all and how that all transpired? I truly admire you for how you handled that situation and moved forward. it is inspiring in itself, some would have folded. it’s amazing how you’ve picked yourself up. I was just curious if you could share a little more on that. If not that’s totally fine too, again I realize it is personal.
Best of luck with everything James your awesome man!
Only time I ever heard from her again was via 2 emails when I got within range of the Hawaiian islands. The first asked me to sign divorce papers ASAP sent shortly after she left me while I was at sea and the second was her being annoyed that I hadn’t responded and said “oh I see on the tracker you obviously had some issue, please let me know when you can deal with this as soon as you reach land” with no inquiry if I was ok (she also didn’t bother texting me on the sat phone after discovering I was adrift in the ocean)
@@SailorJames wow… I’m lost for words my friend, all I can say is good on you! And best of luck moving forward live out your dream’ god Bless you James
Are there links to the oven, cook top, rivet nuts, .......as I did not see them? Thank you. Outstanding galley!
I appreciate this video as well as sv ramble on’s (great channel also). I just bought a Westsail 32 and she’s got no equipment so I have a blank slate. I want all my systems dead simple so I’m was going to go with a used Origo Alcohol stove but I’m toying with an induction hot plate. My hope is a 200 amp Lifepo4 and 200 watts solar would take care of a hot plate and minimal other power needs? I only cook one big pot of coffee and one meal a day so frankly I could get by with a camp stove but I’m paranoid about propane/butane small bottle systems. Keep on keepin’n on James, fair winds!
If you do minimal cooking I think you could make that work, I hav never seen my batteries get below 65% and they always top up before dark even on rainy days
For your battery setup make sure all the wires coming to and from the batteries are the same length. example if you are connecting 3 batteries and have a main wire. all the smaller wires that connect the main wire ti the batteries are the same length.
the reason for this is to even the load of the batteries which makes them last longer and wear evenly.
Sweet action air2 s army out
There is a Mode setting on the front of the oven labeled "Carry", I think, I guess that means "Keep Warm"? Cheers.
Like you we are still learning, but 800w for bacon, 200w for an omelette and 200w to simmer pasta are our go to settings once its up to temperature. Any more and things start to burn.
Yeah it’s been interesting to figure out the numbers verse traditional settings
Planning on duplicating what you did. How has it worked out? Great videos!!! Keep them coming!!
It has been perfect. I will say that once out of the tropics and endless sunshine running my small generator is necessary once a week in NZ since there is so little sun. I am installing a wind generator to help with keeping the batteries up.
Hello
Nice cooking oven and induction top.
What about magnetic field to other electronics instruments, compass,…?
Cheers
The stove is way to far away for it to have any effect and would probably only alter the compass if the compass was sitting on top of it
Denatured alcohol is called 'methylated spirits' in New Zealand and Australia and is widely available.
Man when you get the water making its going to be so dope very interested to know how it works like how much clean water you can make per day and whatnot, im guessing when you get a water maker you wont need so many tanks to hold fresh water and thus have more room for food or other items.
She's a beaut, Clark
One can use 190 proof drinkable alcohol in an alcohol stove... Just an FYI
Dear James, I’ve decided to go your route with my little galley on my Catalina 34’.
Can you give any updates on the oven usage and stovetop usage and how the heat / steam from the oven dissipated or if you’ve had any issues…
Really need to know before I go grab the items needed … my space is a bit smaller but measured and know the oven will definitely fit on my gimbals…be safe and blessed…
Thank you…
Elsa (sailrbean)
I have never had any issues with the heat
@@SailorJames thank you honey… was wondering cause I don’t recall seeing an update on usages of power and so forth… but be safe and enjoy your travels as I’m enjoying seeing you…
Looking at the pot holders.....could you put them on the side rails instead of front and back? Yours are a little different than ours, so maybe it won't work / might interfere with the gimbal action.
No because it stops it from gimballing
I just bought 10 gallons of Isopropynol, lol that'll make a few bowls of soup
Hey, just wanted to see if you were still happy with your cooktop and oven? Any issues or things you would do differently? I'm researching myself and would love your input. Love your channel, thanks for all the info :)
No issues at all, it’s been a brilliant set up
@@SailorJames So good to hear, thanks for the reply! Fair winds :)
Another way ro see if a pot or pan is compatible with electric cook tops is to look on the bottom and see if it has the electric symbol
So did you keep a backpacking stove just in case?
History tells us that Black Beard never said that he was glad to be able to have scones onboard. 😁
Black Beard also was dying from syphilis when he was shot, not really looking to follow in his footsteps 😂
Buy some freeze dried camping meals to keep when you don't have a lot of sun.
Would you conceded wind gen for low sun places?
No, I have been on many boats with them and they are very loud and the “window” of wind from not enough and too much wind makes them not something I would ever want. I also know a Captain who had a bird strike and the fast spinning broken blade injured a crew member
I'm thinking hard about the conversion. I cannot find your followup vid with data on electrical consumption.
I never ended up doing a follow up video , but have had zero issues since converting to electric.
What’s the microwave model number….. nice job
Any concerns about vibration (from the boat) loosening internal electric connections on a commercial off the shelf cook top / stove?
Not at all
Do you think you have room on your kitchen setup to put you refrigeration on it?
I have had a built in fridge for several years
@@SailorJames I think I saw the vid on you doing it. Is it on that site up?
I couldn't live on a boat. Wait What, there's pizza!? I'm good with it now.
Are the batteries fire proof?
LifePo4 batteries are 99% safe, they aren’t the kind that blow up
where's the link for oven and cook top?

Re the pot holders.. just put a 3 rd piece of flat bar across the stove…
That’s what I have been thinking as well, with notches so it sits over the rail
When Dylan went electric, he was met with much skepticism by the traditionalists. But, it seems to have worked out just fine for him, too.
So curious about power consumption….
So far it has been very minimal, in the first week I never used more than 25% of my battery capacity.
Kerosene was an option but most younger people have never used them… Nice retrofit! I used electric on our schooner with lead acid batteries but they weighed as much as your boat lol. Have fun!
