Galley Stoves and Barbecues

Cooking at sea is not the same as cooking at home. Space is tight, the boat is constantly moving, and salt air spares no metal. Choosing the right equipment means focusing on materials such as AISI 316 steel, capable of resisting corrosion, and always verifying that every element is properly secured to prevent dangerous movement while underway.

Installing a cooktop or a barbecue requires meticulous attention to the systems involved. Gas on board must follow strict regulations: hose integrity, cylinder locker ventilation, and the presence of safety thermocouples are not optional extras, but minimum requirements for your peace of mind. At Nautiba, we work with you to verify that the chosen product's specifications - such as cutout dimensions or burner output - are truly compatible with your vessel.

Before ordering, always consider your actual on-board needs. A portable stainless steel barbecue is often more practical than a fixed installation if cockpit space is limited, while a built-in burner requires precise planning of the work surface. If you have questions about fitting compatibility or required flow rates, our pre-sales technical support is available to review the technical data and guide you toward the right solution for your boat.

Criteria for a safe galley choice

Getting the right configuration requires analyzing available space and intended use. Here are some key points to consider before every purchase:

  • Always verify that the material is corrosion-resistant, preferring stainless steels suited for prolonged marine exposure.
  • Measure the cutout dimensions in the galley cabinet precisely to avoid complex structural modifications during installation.
  • Make sure the gas system is equipped with a thermocouple, a critical safety device that shuts off gas flow if the flame goes out.
  • Consider the weight and center of gravity of the barbecue, especially if you intend to mount it on a rail or in an elevated position on the stern pulpit.

How do I verify that a stove is compatible with my on-board gas system?

You need to check the type of gas used and the operating pressure of the on-board system. Every stove must come with technical specifications indicating the correct supply pressure, usually expressed in mbar.

What do I need to check for a cockpit barbecue installation?

In addition to the stability of the mount, verify that the heat produced will not damage the surrounding fiberglass or wood surfaces. Using dedicated stainless steel supports ensures the required safety clearance.

Is maintenance of stainless steel components really necessary?

Absolutely - even AISI 316 stainless steel can suffer attack if it is not rinsed regularly with fresh water after use, especially in high-salinity environments such as open water.
