[Rhodes22-list] Raven's new Fridge & Anomometer

[Philip Gauthier]

Good day everyone. So to answer some questions, "YES" this is Peter's Raven. He kept her in top shape and it's actually going on 3 years already since we bought her. The fridge we installed is a Vitrifrigo C51. We moved it aft a bit from where the original icebox was to gain some depth and it "just" fits. I had to remove the frame to reduce it's height and width which made it necessary to mount the latch pin onto the side of the wood frame. A little patience for precise locating and all works very well. We have also upgraded all the electronics to an NMEA2000 standard (overkill but we like our toys) so I attached a picture of the masthead. I changed out the aluminum masthead plate with a stainless steel one ($40) to mount the new solid state anomometer onto. I've changed the wooden poptop rails as well making them a little heavier as the hatch lock was no longer catching.
