I saw 232 with a diesel genset and AC system. Fridge placement must be easier. Do you have shorepower on your 232?

No shore power - not needed as I am planning on a DC only fridge. When not used I will turn the fridge off.

How will you keep the batteries charged? Flipping on the fridge is not going to instantly give you cold contents. You're going to have to turn the fridge on the day before, draining the battery pretty well. If all you want is cold beer, thats what they make coolers and ice for. If you don't like ice, try a 12 volt cooler.

Getting tired of dragging ice down everyday. Am looking into a 110 volt charging system. I run 2 x 27 Series batteries and can easily add another 1 or 2. I have 110 power at my slip as well. Just looking for advise if anyone has done this on a 232. thanks
