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.

I prefer propane myself. 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.
