Well........The fridge is in.......Mostly

It didn't want to fit as the compressor was fouling at the back. Had to cut a larger hole in the second skin/bulkhead to get it to fit. The GRP layup on Lady Emma is especially thick, a good thing for her strength, not so good for cutting.

As I wasn't expecting the fridge not to go straight in I didn't come equipped with all my tools.
Borrowed a friends rather old jigsaw.......six blades later as they were all going blunt (HSS) was down to the last blade and trimming the final part when the jigsaw had a hissy fit, overheated and died a death

So........I couldn't quite finish the install. Fridge is up and running but not flushed into it's position. I'll have to finish it off next weekend when I'm back......Armed with my jigsaw and a replacement for my friends
