Chuck,
I did the Adler-Barbour conversion on my ice box a long time ago. It is air cooled and works well here in Virginia. It was not a difficult project. Tedious, but not difficult. The compressor and coils reside in the port lazarette on a small shelf that I glassed to the hull. I can send you pics off-list, if necessary. I lost very little space in the lazarette. It was one of the best improvements to my boat that I have made. Cold beer, all the time! Jake Jake Brodersen C&C 35 Mk-III “Midnight Mistress” Hampton VA I recall discussion about this, but could not find the thread. I'm looking into icebox conversion for spring, and wondering if anyone has recommendations? Not sure the advantages with water-cooled v. fan cooled, except the heat buildup in the locker with compressor heated air. Other considerations? Reliability? The obvious loss of valuable space in box for cold plate...etc? single v. dual power? (12 volt or 12/120 volt). Would really appreciate comment, and/or link to previous topic discussion. Thanks...
