2017 330 Express
3 questions.
1) Has anybody upgraded an Isotherm 65 with a 65 elegance?
2)Will it fit?
My deck Isotherm 49 also very corroded, would like to install a 65 there too if possible.
3) transom fishbox is not refrigerated; difficult upgrade?

I'd get your hole dimensions and match them to the documentation for the fridges you are interested in. GW are standard size openings.
All documentation should be on the web. Once you dial in on a potential candidate, do a search of the mfg website or just a manual search.

I'm a KISS guy for a boat unless you just have the jing to throw around.
For the aft refrigerator in the fish box, I'd skip it. Just another mechanical system that is going to be a PIA every 5 years or so.
You'll have to spend years of money for ice to even come close to the cost of that system and really how much use will it get.

I've got the units dim's and we're talking an inch x 2 inch......that's why I was asking if anyone cut/fit/modified to fit different units. Don't like the pullout drawers and the rust on the slides ugh..gonna take these out anyway; was just thinkin someone might have insight.
Thank You
