Need Answers!!  I have a 1993 Sea Ray 400 Express Cruiser and I need some answers for the refrigerator. I currently have a Norcold model# NORDE-0061R refrigerator that doesn't keep the food inside the refrigerator fresh. If I turn up the temp settings, the freezer builds up a lot of ice, and I have to constantly defrost it. I replaced the refrigerator door panel (because of the seal), but it didn't help. Any suggestions to this problem? I am also considering replacing the refrigerator with a marine unit or household unit (I have an invertor) and want to know if others had any recommendations on a new one? Thanks

I had the same issue with my Norcold refrigerator last year. I replaced it with a Vitrifrigo stainless steel DP26001XAC. Perfect fit. Best decision we made. Runs quiet, no frost and now have a happy first mate. Beer stays very cold. Highly recommend.

Thank you very much for this information. I have been researching this project for some time now, even came across this unit, but was unsure if it would fit(Larger cubic foot capacity). Now I just have to measure the door opening to my cabin, to make sure I can get it down there. Thanks again

I service refrigeration in hospitals, it’s not worth fixing if compressor is running it’ a leak if you can find a household unit that fits that’s what I would put in so much more reliable for less than half price. Unless you go on the hook a lot with no generator. I don’t know about everyone else but when I move the boat or stay on he hook generator is always on until I go back to dock and connect to shore power. If I could have found a household unit that would have fit that’s what I would have done.
