This book delves into the infrastructure of a boat galley-the equipment that is available and how those devices work, along with installation requirements and upgrading options.
The galley equipment described includes: water pumps; types of plumbing; water-tank materials; reverse-osmosis watermakers; types of stoves and fuels; ice box insulations; electrical and mechanical refrigeration; marina water connections; raw water faucets; electrical and heat-exchanger water heaters; fume detectors; inverters; galley appliances; fire extinguishers; barbecues; shore-power connections-and much more.
Launer explains the technology and presents the wide range of options that the boat-owner has when tackling a galley project, large or small.
