Portable Fridge/freezers Deliver Cold Wherever Needed

Portable Cooling

Whether chilling snacks for a quick outing or supplying auxiliary cold storage for longer trips, a portable compressor refrigerator/freezer makes an ideal travel companion. Transportable Norcold NRF fridges from Thetford Marine, available in three sizes, are easy to move almost whenever and wherever extra refrigeration is required.

The NRF 30 holds 42 cans, while the NRF 45 can keep 64 cans cool and the NRF 60 has a capacity of 86 cans. These
durable, quiet and energy-efficient refrigerator/freezers deliver full-size cooling performance but are compact enough to stow almost anywhere. The NRF 30 measures 15.6″ H x 15.7″ W x 22″ D; the NRF 45 is 16.9″ H x 15.7″ W x 25.5″ D; and the NRF 60 is 20.4″ H x 15.7″ W x 25.5″ D.

Unlike comparable units with plastic interiors, those in the NRF series come equipped with a stain-resistant stainless steel liner. Locking in cold like a holding plate, the liner promotes maximum cooling power.Top-loading NRF portable fridge/freezers are fitted with an easily reversible and removable hinged lid. A convenient lift-out storage basket offers quick access to food and drink, and also simplifies cleaning. An electronic control panel displays the internal climate, allowing the user to set temperatures as desired.

Changing the unit from a refrigerator to a freezer is as simple as turning a dial. A separate refrigerator-only section prevents freezing of select items.

All Norcold products ensure safety by using UL-approved components, and CFC-free insulation foam and refrigerant.

The hermetically sealed compressor provides built-in low voltage protection. An indicator light alerts users to any potential installation problems. Battery protection with three settable levels prevents battery drain, and automatically resumes unit operation when voltage returns.

Built to last, portable NRF units boast a durable, corrosion-proof plastic exterior, with heavy-duty removable handles. They accommodate off-level operation up to 30º. Units include a DC cord with cigarette lighter plug, with an optional AC adapter also available.

All three models are 120V/AC, 12-24V/DC, and come with a two-year limited warranty.

Nimbus 365 Coupe – A real long-stay cruising boat for exploring

By Andy Adams

There is no shortage of fun and exciting new boat designs hitting the market, but for the last few years these have been mainly outboard-powered day boats. Some are day cruisers; some are centre console fishing boats or designed for tow sports. A new live-aboard cabin boat has become a rare item these days.

So when I heard that Pride Marine in Orillia, Ontario, had a Nimbus 365 Coupe in the water, I jumped at the chance to get out on it.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
