Fridge overhaul

im about to purchase a 2004 36 ft. Catalina mk11.  It needs a complete new fridge system.  What is the best kind and any idea how much money this will cost?

Highly recommend frigoboat keel cooled system. 60% power draw vs air cooled Adler Barbour allows you to mount in bowels of boat since since not air cooled.  Can show you some pics of my unit on a mk II.  Email me of line at chiclasser1@yahoo.com.   Also if interested we sell them and I offer a c36 discounted price.

Very interested to hear more comparing to the latest and greatest air cooled units.

How bad is the insulation on the 36?  Critical to fix it first?

I see Engel has a new unit for icebox conversions. For a 50 quart freezer it draws 2.5 amps an hour. Might be something to check into.
