Stove top cutting board

Post by cuthbert »

Title says it all has anyone found a suitable stove top cutting board that fits on top of the seaward 2 burner stove?

I found the solution on the facebook group page this is an IKEA stock item "Skogsta" $25.
I bought one at the weekend and it fits to the mm width wise, looks like it was made for this stove.

This is the second really good idea I have found on the C350 facebook group, the YETI drop in at the helm seat is the single best improvement I have made to the boat.

Can you expand on the Yeti drop in at the helm? What is it?

Thanks,

This is a Yeti 45 its width is exactly the same as the gap where the fiberglass seat sits but at a more useable height.

One bag of ice and the Yeti means that I don't have to run the fridge with all the inherent charging issues when doing a short 1-2day trip.

Hello

I know this is an older posting but I just came across it today. Are you able to sit on top of Yeti? Just wondering if it is stable and of a good height for the helm.

Looks very interesting, we currently use a small Coleman in the cockpit for drinks etc. so the Yeti would be a good upgrade for us.

Just noticed this - yes, the admiral uses this as a seat when she is at the helm, I prefer standing. Very stable, no problems, I am thinking about buying the cushion that yeti make to put on top to make it more comfortable.

I did look into getting a Yeti before the start of this past season. In the end we didn't go with it but may do it next spring. The little Coleman unit was good for one more year. I had at one point drilled it, top , bottom, lid and all sides then filled in the air space with HD spray foam. That helped keep ice longer, but its no match for Yeti.

We did get the stove top cutting board from IKEA, as was mentioned its a perfect fit and looks great! We don't actually use it as a cutting board, wife says its too pretty to scar up with knives. :)
