To be sure I understand you correctly, you did not remove any interior woodwork, instead you drilled several holes and used injection foam to insulate the ice box. First, were you successful in making it into a box that keeps ice rather than the more traditional Catalina box that melts ice? Second, is there a surrounding box around the ice box or were you just filling a big area?
Lastly, I have been considering removing the through hull for the sink (I rarely use the sink) and icebox and have them drain into the bilge. Has anyone done this and if so, was it successful?

Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: One of my winter projects is to replace the galley sink drain and insulate the cooler in my '79 traditional layout. Any advice on getting access to these? It looks like I have to take the whole galley cabinet out, but I wanted to confirm that. I took all the screws out that I could see holding that in, but it appears that there are more on the aft end that I am missing because that side is pretty tight yet. There is a wooden bulkhead on the forward end of the port lazerette that prevents me from getting to the aft side of the cabinet, so I am hoping the screws are all inside the cabin. The battery charger and shore power breaker and wiring is all attached to that bulkhead, so it would be a pain to remove. Any hints and tricks are appreciated.
