Chess on a boat
Sort:
Well soon, Me and my buddies are going to play some chess on his uncles boat. Tell water is going to be a bit choppy, so is there a way we can play OTB with out all the pieces falling other? Any suggestions? all we have is an new plastic Staunton set.

get some great magnets and attach them to the bottom. The play on a metal table.
alternatively, velcro tabs. they come in round discs with sticky backs.
another option -- get some cardboard and make a board, then cut holes in it over each square so the pieces get sunk into the board so they can't slide around.
out of ideas 
good luck

Hmm...
I think that as long as the boat doesn't go into the water, you should be fine.
I think we will go in the water macer.

Get a really cheap set and hope for the best. Make it magnetic for extra insurance.
As previously stated, get a cheap magnetic set.

You'd think that a well assorted boat shop would be able to deliver...
