IF you haven't caught on by now that we're a boating family, I don't know what more I can tell you. Even when we're blissfully sailing down Chesapeake Bay, there's one thing I still must consider: everybody gets hungry, perhaps more than usual when they're out on the water and in the fresh air. I refuse to open up cans of pork and beans or sardines and let it go at that.

There's no reason why, with a little forethought and preparation, you can't serve appetizing, homecooked meals aboard your boat -and without spending hours in the galley. One-dish meals are a first mate's best friend, especially those that can be prepared ahead of time at home and then just warmed up on your one or two-burner boat stove. Served with a salad, hard rolls, dessert and beverage, you'll have a super supper. ONE rule to insist upon with the skipper, however, no matter how coveted storage space is, demand some room for a few pots and pans, cooking utensils, condiments, and small for flour and sugar. Seasoned salt and pepper don't take up much room.

And do keep some canned goods on hand, as they can be the basis for some delicious, quick meals. As for pots and pans, deep saucepans and a small diameter frying pan that will fit easily on the burner are your best bets. Besides suiting the size of your stove, the deep pans also keep cooking food from sloshing out when you're in rough water or disturbed by the wake of another boat. If you are not lucky enough to have a large ice box or refrigerator aboard, a small lightweight styrofoam chest should have enough room to keep your butter, milk (unless you have a large crew aboard and powdered milk serves the purpose better), salad makings, bacon and eggs. A note on the eggs: a trip to the dime store to purchase plastic egg containers may save you grief, a messy mess and no eggs for breakfast.

HOW much food and how much equipment you have on your boat will depend on its size and how long you plan to be out. I have a little, inexpensive toaster which fits right on the burner I don't like cold, untoasted bread for breakfast. When we're at the dock, I often take along my electric skillet and a combination electric grill and oven which can be plugged into outlets and provide most of the comforts of my kitchen at home. Fortunately, we have a good deal of storage space, so we keep a hibachi on the boat for charcoaling steaks or hamburgers. So here we are, all set for the fanciest gourmet cooking afloat.

No problems at all. (And sometime, if you promise not to tell, I'll go into details about the morning I tried to fry eggs as the captain tried to miss hitting all kinds of debris in the Narrows at New York. Needless to say, we ate scrambled eggs that breakfast.) These recipes can either be made at home or on the boat. In the one using sour cream, don't add this ingredient until just before serving.
