     The frig/frez is just that. Six inches of foam on the sides and bottom, three inches on top. It has an Waco Adler Barber unit in the frez compartment with a two inch foam partition between it and the frig. It uses the "spill over" method to cool the frig and works like a charm. We make our own ice and are able to frez and keep food frozen. Run time with full boxes is about 15-20 minutes per hour. Forward to the settee. I was never happy with the pull out arrangement and the drawers for storage. So I did away with the upper berth, got much more storage, a handy shelf and a comfortable berth that doesn't pull out to block the cabin. I did a similar thing on the port side, sorry that I get in the way. I didn't care for the right angle of the seat back so while I was tearing things part I moved the settee out about four inches. This enabled me to angle the bottom of the seat back out four inches and leave the top of the back where it was. Result is more storage, another shelf, TV, VCR and printer (the TV ties into place while underway) and another comfortable place to sit. This side isn't finished yet, the under deck trim is in the works. Lastly the table. I made a double drop leaf table with two pedestal base. I move the base to port about three inches and used drafting table hinges, three different angles for more comfortable use of the laptop, on the port side. One more item, the ceilings are white cedar and are used in the forward cabin also.

No Name Harbor, Key Biscayne

I can't believe that in two years your boat will be 40 years old!

Paul, one word comes to mind after looking at your boat...Cruisers!

I am seeing a lot of boats heading South on the ICW now.
