Kuhn-Rikon makes a great mini pot you need for your boat. It takes up little room and serves many different functions. If you have space for one more pot, this is the one I suggest.
Summary
This flexible bit of galley gear is worth having on your boat if you can make room for it. Wihile it won’t replace a skillet or conventional pot, it may replace a tea kettle, vegetable steamer, and even serve as a mini canner.
The Kuhn Rikon Mini Pot holds 3 quarts and is narrow enough to sit even on a narrow galley stove top alongside another pan. It has a spout top for pouring out hot water and an insert for straining (or steaming). The top is made of glass, perfect for checking on food without wasting propane by lifting the lid. The pot and lid handles are coated with silicone. They stay cool enough to handle without a pot holder. And the high-quality stainless steel resists staining and pitting.
Over the years, I’ve bought one three times (no, I never wore them out; I’ve left them behind for others to use).
Take a look. You might find this clever bit of boat galley gear as useful as I do.
