Default DIY refrigerator in sailboat

The problem with Larry's suggestion is that while there might be a
small saving initially, I wouldn't have much hope of an ancient "dorm
fridge" surviving in the marine environment for very long. And if it
does leak out, how expensive do you think the repair and recharge
would be? This is a reasonable solution for the back of an old van,
not a very good one for a custom installation on a boat. An Engel
would be a much better solution.



Considering I have $5 in it, how long does it have to "survive in the
marine environment" to break even? A day? A week? A month??....(c;

How long does an Adler-Barbour last for $1000?
