My question is primarily directed at the 38-2 owners on the list, but might
also be appropriate for owners of other mid 70s boats.

 

Have you added insulation around the ice box on your boat, and how?

 

Deconstructing the cabinets, counter, and dish storage cabinet aft of the
ice box is way more project than I want to tackle (plus I'd undoubtedly
screw up all that teak.

 

Access through the little cabinet door under the three silverware drawers is
miserable. I can basically get one arm into the space, or I can get my head
in - so I can see a bit but only have limited ability to work in the space
under the counter. And I don't see and obvious or easy way to remove the
structure that supports the drawers to increase the access.

 

There are surprisingly large spaces between the outside of the ice box and
the surrounding bulkheads, as much as 6" or more in some places, so spray in
foam does not seem a practical alternative.

 

About the only practical alternative I see is to add foam to the inside of
the box and glass it over.

 

I could profit from your experiences and suggestions.
