[Public-List] Ice box

[Gordon Laco]

I threw that shelf away.   I kept the divider as a convenient bulkhead between the two halves of the icebox.  

I added 3” of blue foam to the inside of the icebox where it shares a bulkhead with the engine compartment, 1” all around the other sides and top.  I sheathed that in glass cloth and epoxy, then painted it.  It’s been a pretty good icebox since then.  

Despite the loss of interior volume, we can still load four x 5lb blocks of ice and a bag of cubes into it, and that lasts days on a cruise. (up to four)
