Boat BBQ's

Have a Mini Webber Q on the boat and normally cooking on the floor or on top of the big esky but I'm over it. Looking at picking up a Gasmate 1100 and just wondering if anyone could post up some pics of good mounting ideas? My fuel vent being in the rear starboard corner I don't want it mounted on the bait board as it will be too close so currently plan to put it up front near the cab on the port side. 2 solid rod holders that I can mount a cray pot tipper into then just slip out and drop in the BBQ set up (similar to a bait board) with HDPE inserts so it is tight in the rod holders and doesn't rattle plus a clip to lock down so it can't jump out.

 

Anyone done anything similar who can share some ideas or success pictures ?

Also looking for someone to do the ally work in Waikiki.

Anyone had one of these BBQ's and reckon they can survive getting sloshed about in the swell on a 7m ally boat (I'm not a sunshine fisherman)

 Hi Bigfella,

 

A mate of mine has done what you are talking about. He has two rod holders on his starboard side just behind the cab that fit the cray tipper during cray season and they also hold the barbie when out fishing. We've had the BBQ sitting there with snaggers rolling about in some pretty ordinary conditions. Once we're done with the BBQ we stow it back away though. Not sure what model bbq it is but its a pretty snazzy marine stainless steel jobby. Chivers marine did all the work when the boat was purchased new.

webber Q's are a good Barby, why don't you get a bracket made up that will hold it?

 Im with shonky, cant beat the baby q i have used then for 10 days straight on a boat on the bait board and cant fault them.

 

But do you mean a galleymate 1100? You can get mounts for rod holder or rail mounts!

 Yep sorry Galleymate the expensive stainless jobby. Looked at one a few months back(1000) though it was a bit small so looking at the 1100 now. Yep the baby q is all good but a pain in the arse if there is any breeze so don't think mounting it over the side will be any chop. Got to get it off the deck as to store it under the seat I have to pull the pins out and strip the lid off. 

See what I come up with over the next few weeks and I will post some pics.
