Refrigerator Replacement on '89 31 Convertible - Freedomskeeper - 10-22-2016

I went down to the boat one weekend and found the original refrigerator was not working. Since it was 27 years old I decided to replace it and did not consider repair. The challenge began when trying to find a direct replacement, which I accomplished , and is the genesis for this thread.

I installed an Isotherm Elegance 130 which was about as close o a direct replacement I could find. I had to place some scrap strips of teak as shims underneath to hold it level. It protrudes a little further than the OEM one but does not interfere with the door to the head.  

I hope that this solution can help someone in the future.

Cheers!
