How Do You Clean a Marine Grill?

Grills should be cleaned after every grilling session to maintain good condition. They should also undergo an annual deep cleaning. When deep cleaning, disassemble the device and clean each component thoroughly.

A dependable cleaning routine and schedule will prevent you from needing replacement grill parts before they’re absolutely necessary. Your owner’s manual is a useful source of maintenance information, but here are a few general steps to keep in mind:

Use a hard-bristled brush to clean grill grates while the device is still warm
Apply spray on cleansers (such as oven cleaner) to remove burned bits of food
Clean other areas with warm water, soap, and scrubbing sponges
Rinse the grill when finished cleaning
Make sure parts are completely dry before reassembling the grill

When cleaning, be mindful of the grill’s electrical parts, as they can be damaged by water. Also, use a soft cloth to clean the outside of the grill. An abrasive scrubbing material can cause scratches.

Are Marine Grills Safe?

Rest assured that boat grills are safe, provided that boaters take the necessary precautions. Stability is a major concern, and selecting appropriate Magma grill mounts or Kuuma grill mounts ensures that the grill remains stable and secured when the boat is in motion. It’s also recommended that boaters check the stability of the grill before every use.

Also, marine grills should only be used when the boat is not in motion. That means grilling should be off-limits unless the boat is anchored or docked. A burst of wind or rogue wave is hard to predict when the boat is in motion, and a single incident can cause damage to the watercraft, as well as major injuries.

Common sense is your best friend when grilling on your boat, and you can prevent accidents by:

Avoiding Flammable Materials – Keep clothing, fabric, and any other flammable materials a good distance from the grill. Also, grill mounts should be installed downwind for optimal safety.

Having Someone Watch the Grill – Leaving the grill unattended is a major safety hazard. If you must attend to other matters on the boat, enlist a responsible adult to watch the grill in your absence.

Keeping Fire Safety Equipment Accessible – Fire extinguishers are non-negotiable when boating. Along with ensuring the device is accessible, check your fire extinguisher according to manufacturer instructions to ensure it’s functional.

Checking Fuel Connections – A bad fuel connection can pose a fire hazard, so boaters are encouraged to check fuel lines prior to grilling. If connections are faulty, shop for Magma grill parts or Kuuma grill parts to prevent any mishaps.

Check the user’s manual for specific information on the grill’s safety features. Also, be sure to obey marina rules when grilling while docked.

Are Boat Grills Prone To Rust?

Wet conditions are a given when boating, so it’s natural for boat owners to be concerned about their grills rusting. Keep in mind that boat grills are designed to withstand the elements, and that includes damage caused by moisture. However, even the most carefully designed boating accessory can fall victim to wear and tear.

Many boat grills are constructed from stainless steel thanks to the material’s impressive corrosion resistance. Despite the reliability of the material, repeated exposure to elevated temperatures, sunlight, and water (particularly saltwater) is problematic. Remember, these elements can wear down stainless steel and may even cause rust to form.

This highlights the importance of regular cleaning, as doing so will deter rust formation. Covering the grill when not in use can also combat wear, so check out our selection of Magma grill covers and accessories and Kuuma grill covers and accessories to ensure your model remains fully protected from the elements at all times.
