What this video covers

Living aboard requires energy management and practical galley techniques to maintain comfort during evening hours. To conserve battery power for the refrigerator, the crew shuts down computers at sunset and adjusts the fridge to its minimum power setting.2:10 For dinner, the hosts prepare pizza using a bread dough base, incorporating cornmeal (fubá) to add texture and crunch to the crust.5:53 Because the boat’s oven is small and lacks custom-fit trays, they construct a makeshift baking sheet using aluminum foil to maximize the available cooking space.6:37 Before retiring for the night, the crew performs a standard safety check, ensuring the gas valve is closed and all non-essential electrical systems are powered down.9:47 The following morning, they bake bread using a ring-shaped cake pan, which allows the center of the loaf to cook thoroughly despite the oven's high heat intensity.12:44 The cockpit serves as the primary living space for meals and relaxation throughout the day and evening.13:07
