A well insulated cooler and a couple of bags of ice available at any port or marina would be a better benefit. and I'll drop back to one 8- D and one automotive battery and go back with a smaller and lower powered alternator for better efficiency due to less drag and flywheel effect. still gotta have the microwave and coffee maker, though. I'll get it figured out ===== Using ice is problematic for a lot of different reasons. Consider one of these instead: http://www.amazon.com/Engel-AC-Fridg.../dp/B001DE45EY They run on either AC or 12v DC and use very little power, In addition they can be either a fridge or a freezer, and have some uses around the home or in your car/truck. We bought two prior to our Caribbean cruise last year and they've been completely trouble free. At homke we use them when entertaining on the patio. I haven't even peeked in here in about a week and this is the only boating related post I've come across so far, so I guess congratulations are in order. I use ice coolers on both of my boats. They seem to work well enough for my day trips up here in the polar regions of Long Island Sound. I have a small Igloo cooler I take aboard on my lake boat, and a larger, better cooler I take out on my fishing boat. I have been known to double plastic bag fish I've caught and put 'em in the food cooler. Yes, I have done that. Sue me. You've giving the non-boating morons here too much info. Next thing you know, one of them will be on your dock, watching you carrying your cooler onboard and taking photos of you and the boat. Better wear a mask. :) At least he's probably telling the truth, unlike you, liar.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - That is too funny.. Harry is projecting again, who was that lady he stalked to her marina, took pictures of, and stalked right off the board?? Would that be Mad Cow? And how about the lady at the boat show? -- Ziggy® |
