| Clink your glass! |
We don't have glasses that clink, we try to avoid glass onboard where we can.

| Three different types of Lexan glasses to drink adult beverages from. |
We do have one set of special occasion "glass" glasses, because they were hand-made, and a gift to Bill from his colleagues for retirement.

I mostly drink wine, and since the no glass rule is in effect, it comes from a bladder in a box.

| You never know what you'll find when you lift up the stairs. |
The top stair holds mostly beer, and the bottom, mostly wine. There's also beer lying next to the hull under the sole, (floor, for you lubbers), in front of the aft (rear), head (bathroom). The beer stays cool there.

| It's time for wine! |
The Boat Galley, Carolyn Shearlock, has a website FULL of great suggestions for everything boating. Here is one of her solutions for securing your wine bladder.

We're wine drinkers. In fact, I'm sipping on a cheap red wine from a plastic glass as I read this. We have a secure space for bottles, so haven't had to monkey around with boxed wine yet.
ReplyDeleteOne of the best things about box wine, is that you get four bottles worth in one bag. Quadruples the stash! We also have the cabinet with the whiskies, rum, brandy, gotta be prepared.
DeleteDarn it, we didn't even think of the breakable aspect. :)
ReplyDeleteNo problem, the glass tumblers just make the contents, and the occasion all the more special!
DeleteGlass is all great spirits will ever touch- including the fabulous bottle you guys also provided me... not even ice...
DeleteAs we say on our 'For our Guests' page under Personal Items; "Booze bottle(s) [Plastic preferred, but good booze in glass bottles will be permitted if shared...]"
And speaking of sharing: the Ships Articles [at the bottom of the Guest's page] clearly states how good booze brought aboard will be proportioned...
