I don't doubt this is what Thetford said, but there is a world of
difference in terms of "instalation difficulties and tilting issues"
between a sea going sailing boat and a narrowboat used on inland
waterways.  Marine (i.e. seagoing) use might well be a non starter, but
I cannot see why a properly installed fridge in a canal boat, with
adequate venitilation, is so different from caravan or motorhome use.
