Best thing I ever bought for getting out on the water is a charcoal grill from Wal Mart that is portable. Me and my girlfriend cook burgers and hot dogs nearly every trip now and it is a ton of fun. I also like- chips and dip, fruit salad, pepperoni with cheese and crackers, boiled peanuts (spicy or regular from the guy near Inside Out furniture), Wal Mart deli items or Hormel snack trays, even Pizza Hut- at least my folks loved it back in the day when I would bring it on the boat after leaving work. Sure am glad I have a real job now! If I had it to do over I'd probably make my portable grill a gas unit instead of charcoal- match light charcoal can have its ignition fluid evaporate. My girlfriend can make dip for fruit out of marshmallow fluff and cream cheese that is awesome. Maybe I can get her to post the recipe but she says it's not real healthy because of the sugar- sure is tasty though. Guess that's all I got...

I ususally go and get 2 loaves of french bread from the grocery store, and then I get the deli to cut up a Pound of Roast Bee, a Pound of Turkey, and a Pound of Ham , and a pound of cheese, lettuce, tomatoe, horseradish, mustard, onion, and make 2 huge sandwiches. Then for drinks, i typically dont bring beer on the boat, i got really sick one time years ago and since then all i bring are usually a case of water, or powerade, and some soda's.

I will admit that I am the worlds worst when it comes to the amount of drinks I bring. I usually way over do it. And the problem is also, when I get home, I tend to just unload the cooler from the boat and not the contents.

Well it has trash, half eaten sandwiches, empty beer cans with a sip left in them, all left in the cooler. By the time that I remember that I left all that crap in the cooler, it's growing all kinds of colors inside there and the smell is just horrible. So I just end up throwing away tons of drinks because of that.

We used to do the very same. Fill the boat, to be honest I would rather just have bag of chips, instead of several bags of grocerys.

Cheese crackers or peanut butter crackers, Power bars (the new chocolate covered kind, not the original crap), lots of water and Gatorade.

On occasion, it's nice to throw some fresh fruit in the cooler! It's very refreshing after a long day of diving. Either a whole pineapple or watermelon, or even just a few oranges.

And, of course, gotta have some beers for the ride back in!

Some cajun salmon dip from winn dixie with some triscuits. Gotta have some watermelon and some peanut butter/honey captain wafers. I always have a banana and peanut butter sandwich that morning since banana can't be on the boat. Plenty of water and two or three beers per person. Usually have one around 10 or 11 and a couple on the ride in.

Come to think about it, a few weeks ago while out on Reel Fiesty's boat (my shark trip), Scott's wife Pam had fixed up a fruit mix that was just great on a warm/hot day on the water. Watermelon, Strawberries, Melons and what not. I had some and found it most refreshing. Now that will be on my list of things that I will take with me. We eat all kinds of fruit at home, but never thought to have it cut up in a container like that, and drag it out with me. :clap:clap

I love Cold Fried Chicken dipped in Hot Sauce. Albertsons (Which will soon be Publix) has good fried Chicken too.

Next time you go, get some gallon sized ZipLok bags and put some chicken in one and pour a bottle of hot sauce (any brand) in it and shack it up. Put it into the cooler in the morning and you know the rest...

Dang.
