has anyone replaced the refrigerator in the cockpit area of a C302 with a freezer?
 
Watching... I like this idea. It seems to me that additional freezer space would be a huge asset for longer trips and having access to frozen meals.
 
C30, replaced the cockpit ice maker with a dometic CRX50 stainless unit. Works on both 12v and 120v, and based on the setting can be a full fridge, fridge w/freezer compartment, or full freezer. Really changed the game for longer cruises. It was a snug fit, but it did fit.60bddec6-46e1-46a4-ba83-0c36b6d50be6-1_all_1112.jpg
 
Thanks that's awesome, going to the Bahamas in June have been there several times in the past. Always though it would nice if the cockpit ref. was a freezer. The inside ref. is plenty room enough for us. Where did you purchase your unit. THANKS
 
Originally I purchased it directly from a Dometic distributor, but it looks like West Marine actually has a few in stock in their warehouses Model # 17458290 Mfg # 9108915857 (specifically for the stainless steel version as the CRX50 comes in a few different trim options)

One thing I will mention is that when I ordered mine the actual stainless flush mount trim pieces were sold/ordered separately as they weren't included with the fridge. You would need to call Dometic to get the part number as I just let the dealer handle it.
