Person
Jane Gibb and her husband have lived aboard their yacht Honey Jar for the last 10 years, cruising from Venezuela to the US and Canadian east coast in summer, and returning to the Caribbean each winter. She claims her phobia about cooking began at an early age. Coming from a long line of anything but cooks, her struggle for survival at mealtimes has taught her how to cheat at cooking, and she has spent years of reluctantly producing meals on the move, camping, caravanning and boating.
