Boca Chita Island in South Florida. Great times testing the new Magma grill 😋👍
@Merlion Nice boat and nice touches, looks great. Q’s on the Magma grill:

1. Does it use the table leg or has its own leg?
2. If it uses yamaha’s table leg, I assume it comes with mating black part that attaches to grill bottom?
3. Where do you store it? Where can it fit?
4. How much $$ for the whole grill setup? Where is best place to buy it?
5. How long does that mini propane tank last?
6. What % window tint do you have?

Thanks in advance?

Took some friends from Cali for a little chilly cruise up the TN river into Knoxville. Stopped for some drinks, then back home.

The magma grill works great. I decided to go with the smaller 12” (Trailmate) as opposed to the most popular 18” as the 12” is the perfect size for what I need (can cook up to 5 burgers at a time) and it saves space for storage not to mention easier to clean. You’d have to buy the black mount adpter (part number SBT-TMGRL-MT-14)
With that adapter, It does use the yamaha mounting leg, so you will have to buy another one unless you use the one that came with the boat (i bought the second one so I can still use the table)

for storage, I purchased the Magma bag for the 12” grill. It’s perfect and it can hold 3 propane tanks, extra valves, lighters, etc. I store it under the front bow seats, and it fits perfectly.

you can look on Amazone for the Grill or the yamaha accesories page. The grill can be found between $200 - $300, the mount about $50 and the bag about $75. Again, amazone and ebay would be cheaper than yamaha.

not sure how long the propane tanks lasts yet, but I’ve been using the same one in two outings and still going.

on the window tints, I decided to go with 25% and looks great! Very natural

Funny , that boat finally left the area a few weeks ago, with the Franken anchor so that ordeal lasted 2 years. And a quick anchor built from scrap metal held up in salt water for 2 years !
I actually spoke to the guy who ran aground in this boat it is also swamped from the ground swells.
The day It happened there were very strong waves rolling in from the gulf.
he his female passenger and their dog were sitting on the beach waiting for someone to come and pull the boat off the sand bar. I suggested he release the engines trim system manually and physically lift the motors so they could tow the boat off but from the look on his face I don't think he understood. I doubt he has insurance or he would have had sea tow recover the boat when it happened.

Thanks so much @Merlion for your responses. I really like your setup, clean, professional, and simple. Cost is very reasonable too.
Also the info you provided is very thorough and will definitely help others who might be hunting for this info all ver the place but here it is in one place now.

Thanks so much @Merlion for your responses. One more Q, did the grill come with that white tray extension in front of it? If not where did you get it and how much for it? I really like your setup, clean, professional, and simple. Cost is very reasonable too.

The tray is an accessory for the Grill, about $35... You should definitely get it as part of the set up.

Very jealous. What’s the weather like this time in Florida?
You don't want to know. Probably the best time of the year. Right now it's 76° @4:53pm. It was a very hot and loooong summer. But days like this make up for it. Sunsets are really pretty too. The pictures above are accurate (actually maybe a little bit more blue).
