Looking for a rail mounted BBQ. Some are really expensive, which ones can you recommend?

Just anchor up and go ashore and there’s man with it all prepared . Saves the hassle of clearing up as well plus any leftovers attract the local turtles etc.

A reasonable approach, if you're near land or in the caribbean in general, not so much for england.

Australia (and NZ) are a multicultural society and there is no need to adhere to cartoon stereotypes.

I note the comments that people hate cleaning their BBQ, or Cobb. You can cook cleanly in an oven (that's why aluminium foil is available).

The components of our cobb are easiy cleaned in a dishwasher no need for harsh scrubbing and comes out nearly as new.

Cobb is best used with compressed coconut fuel blocks. These are supplied in individual sealed poly bags to keep fuel dry and eliminates any black charcoal mess.
They are very slow burning and give plenty of heat. Sufficient to cook a small roast chicken with tatties wrapped in foil cooked in the moat surrounding the fuel.

If you like your non vegan meal to be juicy and tender a Cobb preserves meat juices far better than an open charcoal grill.

This is ours, probably 20/30 years old by now. Will take a normal disposable or fill a tray with charcoal. We've always got a bag of charcoal on board.
The thought of fresh caught and BBQ'd mackerel is making me dribble.
Unfortunately this make seems to be no longer available.

When you do a bbq after you're done, you just cut an onion in half and clean the grill with that. Do you huys not do that?

Clean the grill? Not a part of BBQing that I recognise...

Tried cobb couple times, gave up, sooo slooow and the cleaning on a boat with no dishwasher was a pain. That's why I got the Asado. Put in a disposable, cook, eat, chuck the disposable (bin) and virtually no cleaning, easy.

But disposables are crap? They're not very hot

Depends what you buy. Always hear folks talking about roasting a chicken on a Cobb. I don't want to do that, just couple steaks and some sausages

All this talk of cleaning. Just sail somewhere with warm, clear, shallow water. Then you can just throw the grill over the side when you're done, and pick it up the next day.

(Actually this doesn't work as well as you'd hope, the fat goes in to a horrible emulsified mess).

That's what the onion is for
