Is it possible to have a fridge fitted in the MacGregor 26M?
There are several possible solutions to this. Firstly, there is the space under the seat opposite the galley to accommodate a fridge or a cool box. Secondly, there is a space at the rear of the boat where a large fridge or cool box can be located. An important consideration to bear in mind with a fridge powered from the boat’s battery is the power consumption of the unit. It is highly recommended to have a second battery installed to power the fridge (And any other non-essential equipment). This battery can be charged from the engine’s alternator and with a battery isolation system you can be sure that you will always have the engine starting battery charged and ready for use. The second battery can be completely discharged by accident but the starting battery will be unaffected with such an isolation system in place.
