I should have said, this is for a 36' trawler with a genset and a decent
12V bank. I'm leaning most strongly towards 12V compressor, air cooled
condenser.

I have an electric refrigerator on my Parker. Never used it.

Why not, doesn't it work?

I have a great thick cooler I load with ice. Got a temp gauge hooked up
through it. Keeps fresh food at safe temps for four or five days.
No trouble.


Why do you need a thermometer? Don't you know what temp ice melts at?
Besides, this wouldn't work for us when we're out for two or three weeks
and want to keep ice cream.
