I'm highly OCD when it comes to boat...car...airplane...etc, cleanliness so this grill should not make a mess. Thanks!270win,
I have never had a mess on the side of my boat with the BBQ. If you keep it clean (reasonably clean - not OCD clean), the units are self contained and will not drip.
I've had pedestal mounts on the swim platform of each of my previous four boats as well and they also work great. For my set-up though, I like the rocket launcher better.
