Two questions re: refrigeration use when cruising & Novakool specific ?

A Norcold customer service rep told me that their refrigerators "are not designed to keep things cool when it's 110º inside." Seems like 95º is in a gray area. Yeesh.

And the manual indicates that the freezer is for keeping things frozen, not freezing things. It's a limited application product.

The freezer will freeze stuff, but you don't want to add more than a small amount of non-frozen stuff at a time (and not in weather where it's already running flat out to keep up). The 12v fridges are generally just not super powerful.

We need details on successfully recruiting a wife to work on the boat!

That it did!

I count my blessings every day, and especially when it comes to her jumping into projects when called upon. She is wildly effective on that stuff.
