Installing a refrigerator was very low on my list of things to do. I only
did so after I had gotten all the important, more necessary things
attended to. After about ten years of ownership that is. The frivolous,
luxury items like a fridge should always come last. Never before necessary
sailing systems are in top-notch condition. It's all about priorities.
Cold beer is nice but not necessary. Same can be said for hot women.

On a small cruising sailboat, I would agree that refrigeration is a
low-priority item. It takes up too much space and requires too much energy
for the investment, IMO. On a live-aboard of any size, however, it is pretty
high on the priorities list.
