Greetings Joe, Can you elaborate on that part about coal and spontaneous combustion when wet? I'd never heard that before and I come from an era when I used to shovel coal into the furnace and later fill the stoker hopper with coal. I don't recall precautions about wet coal, other than it burning much better when dry. Ron Wild Cheri C&C 30 STL

Charcoal does make better tasting food, but it is a messy PITA on a boat. One surveyor, no doubt traumatize by a coal bunker fire in a previous life, would not sign off until I got rid of the charcoal grill. Coal will spontaneously ignite when damp. Joe Della Barba Coquina
