The crew of the catamaran Calypso upgrades their galley and stores emergency supplies while preparing for off-grid living. They install a custom-built wooden enclosure for an air fryer in the space formerly occupied by a propane stove, integrating a temperature-controlled DC fan system to vent heat from the galley cabinet.8:57 To manage weight distribution, they stow six five-gallon buckets of long-term emergency food—a three-month supply—in the forward storage compartment under the master bed.3:23 The crew also removes a faulty masthead forward-looking camera system after a technician from the manufacturer confirms a software failure.1:00 During the project, they monitor the boat's trim by checking diesel and water tank levels, noting that heavy loads in the stern cause the boat to sit low in the water.6:58 The installation of the air fryer enclosure improves galley aesthetics and ventilation, while the food storage provides a contingency for offshore passages.
