    Ice box drain leaking on our E27?

    We have some water leaking from a small hole (about the size of a dime) in the bottom corner of the ice box enclosure. We are thinking it could be the drain hose connection for the ice box, but the ice box is all enclosed so we see no way to access the drain connection. Any ideas?

    Dry Ice

    Anybody use dry ice in the ice box or fridge on the boat? We're headed out for a 10 day cruise and I'm thinking it might be a good way to help out the reefer. My only real concern is the dry ice being so cold that it breaks the ice box bottom. Will a towel or two help? Any advice...

    Prevent smells and rust in your Ice Chests!!!

    To keep fish boxes, ice chests, bait tanks, and even tackle boxes less damaging to your olfactory senses (Ie. less stinkie), put a charcoal briquette in the toe of a discarded sock or panty hose. It will not only absorb smells but also protects tightly closed areas from rust by absorbing...

    Block ice dimensions ?

    After over a year of thinking about options the first mate decided we should have an ice box, not a 12-volt fridge. So it is time to start designing it while doing the other assignments. In the slip we have unlimited access to cube ice, but when we're out I really prefer block ice because it...

    Building an ice box

    Question: I own a E-27, but a friend of mine is considering buying a E-25, and he said there doesn't appear to be a Ice Box. Is there, or is there not a Ice Box. Is there a logical location to put a portable one? Jeff

    Ice Box

    With regards to the icebox on our E-27, I am not sure what is faster, the speed of sound or the rate ice melts in the Florida summer. Anyhow, after looking into it ( no pun) there are several areas void of any insulation and the rest have no room for any. So I was thinking that instead of trying...
