Interesting, I didn't quite understand what the earlier pic of this was, but now I get it. Are you going to install a drain or anything inside the reefer box or just towel out condensation? This is going to have top access right?

I will install a drain of some sort and pipe it over to my shower sump.

Finished the refer bin for the most part.  It is taller than needed since Im not sure how thick the the door will be yet.  I will trim it down after.

A little more on the refer bin. It’s ready more or less for insulation.  More tomorrow

I have most of the insulation on.  Except two panels on the bottom.  It fits as tight as it possibly could.  I used thicker insulation than called for since I mostly had the space for it and the unused space was of no use anyway

This refer bin is a lot more work than I originally expected.  I bet I have 5 solid days into it so far.  It was a rascal trying to keep everything plumb, level, square.  If your just the gitter done kinda dude just buy a refrigerator.  I think this project will make the house feel more boaty
It’s almost as big as  the cruise elegance 130 and almost half price.

If anyone ever wondered Will foil or polyisocyanurate stick to epoxy?  It does.  I did a couple test pieces.  I was however able to rip the stuff I. Two pretty easy as the polyiso let go.  It was unaffected by epoxy without the foil.

Miss working on the boat, but taking some needed time away from work.  Spent the weekend off of Catalina doing some grocery getting.  I sacked up 21 lobsters.  No big ones.  This weekend will be off Santa Barbara.  There’s bigguns there.  We will see.

You are in my neck of the woods! I haven't had a shot yet at the bugs, I am thinking in a week or two. Just got my 17' cc fixed so ready to go!

I didn’t do any thing picture worthy.  Here is a shot of my PB.  Taken about 6-7 years ago at San Miguel

Headed back after the week of bagging bugs.  I sacked 31.  I have next week off too.  Time to spend with the mistress in the barn!
   Sorry no pics of this trip.  We never made it to the island of giants(Santa Barbara).  Spent 5 days On Catalina.  It’s pretty good hunting but not very good for big ones.

 Built my galley cabinet today.  Used the design in the plans.  Will put drawer fronts on it after I box in the refer.
