Soontobecruiser is on a distinguished road
My father-in-law made his own "topsy turvey" He took a 5 gallon bucket and drilled holes in it. He then planted 6 small tomato plants in it. He did get lots of tomatoes, but a couple of things that I would do differently are 1. Use only 2 or maybe three plants and 2. put a lid on the top of the bucket. I think the lid would help with the water evaporating. I don't know how it would work on a boat getting salt spray all over it. He did have to water it daily.
