Its something I want to do simply because I want a reasonable amount of refrigeration and I dont want the expense or weight of a dedicated diesel genset.
Many say it cant be done, some on other forums are saying they are doing it now as liveaboards, but with 2 small fridge/freezer
A boat that I was/am looking at has a decent sized fridge freezer and makes the claim

Refrigeration Domestic 220 volt fridge freezer
Four large solar panels individually managed run the whole ship through a Mastervolt 2500 watt inverter/charger. No need to run the genset.

Can it be done - is anyone doing it?
If so, what sort of gear have you onboard to do it?
This vessel has no shortage of roof for more panels if needed and I would rather go this way than get a 12 volt marine fridge at far greater expense or drop $5 to $15k on a diesel Genny.
