Galley safety aboard Leon Schulz's boat covers two hazards: burns from hot liquids and cuts from knives. Against burns, Leon recommends wearing foul weather gear while cooking in rough conditions so spilled boiling water runs off rather than scalding skin.0:28 For boiling water specifically, he uses a small electric kettle held in place by a magnetic base, advising against overfilling it when the boat is heeling.0:50 When pouring, he holds both kettle and cup over the sink with both hands to control spills.1:17 For knife safety, he dedicates one drawer exclusively to sharp items, fitted with a wooden stopper that prevents the drawer from pulling out completely.1:56 A standard cutting board with pre-cut slots stores knives blade-down in the sink while in use, keeping them off the worktop where they could slide.2:46 He stresses washing and drying knives immediately after use and returning them to their dedicated drawer.3:43 The core principle across both hazards: assign every sharp or hot item a fixed, contained location and never leave it unattended on a moving boat.
