Hello all, I have decided to replace the cockpit icemaker in my 330 DA with a refridgerator. So I would like to sell the icemaker. I works well, but the teflon tray coatings are starting to peel. We just mainly used it for a freezer or cooler ice. Asking $200 If interested, email me at johnbhite@msn.com
 
I've done the swap on my current boat. It's more complicated than meets the eye. Many times it seems the space is OK but you end up doing glass work. The plumbing is the easy part. Maybe some are concerned about this and have not responded. Our Tiara dealer is always second guessing what to order. He buys an ice maker and the customer prefers a fridge. Next boat he orders a fridge and then someone like me comes along and wants the ice maker.
 
Hi John,

Do you have a model number or rough dimentions of the unit?
 
If it is a Uline SP-18, I may be interested. My new boat has a broken one, and I've been trying to debate whether I want to repair/replace the existing one, or convert to a refrigerator.

I would also prefer a fridge rather than the icemaker. Can you let me know what make/model you end up using and how the install went?

True enough about the ice maker needing 110 v. However, we have found that our ice lasts a long time without power. We can easily go 8+ hours and still have good ice, and by then we are either anchored or in a slip with power. When we anchor, we usually run the genny for cooking and dump the old ice and make new for 2-3 hours. That gets us enough ice to have the next morning. We don't like running our genny more than we have to, but for us the ice is nice to have. Almost everything else we use on our boat is 12 v.
 
Insulation is not that great but it does hold for hours. I've had the cleaning service trip the breaker and still had ice after 24 hours. Granted, it's floating in water but it's still usable. Dump it and you are back in business in 3-4 hours. While not expected, it does defrost the freezer. I wipe things out and we are as good as new for another 6 weeks.

I am now deeply depressed :smt009

We have the genny and we have a fridge. The only thing that keeps us from being self sufficient for a couple of days on the hook is a good supply of ice.
the 340 originally had one, but my guess isit must have crapped out. One of the PO's made a really nice smoked plexiglass door to cover the hole where the ice maker once lived.

If someone has a dead one with the 14 X 24 dimensions, I'd be real open to talking about that as well. The day may come when I'm in the mood to drop $900 on a new one but it's not here yet.

30 days till splash...........

I just pulled a Uline SP-18 out of my 2007 Doral. I never used it but I would imagine it works fine. It gets ice cold when I plug it in.
 
Unfotunatly the SP18 is the more short/wide unit. I've got to track down one of the tall narrow units.
 
Mine is hit and miss. I believe the service line is cracked. I am going to pull it some time this year and and see about installing a drink fridge or just get a countertop ice maker unit for roughly $150 and slide it in there.

I might be interested in it if works. What are you looking for?

Thanks,

I think they go for about $1000+ new. Does $500 sound reasonable? If for some reason it doesn't work I'll refund your money, no questions asked. You would just have to ship it back. Actually, the company I work for does a lot of work at Howard University. You could drop it off at our office there and I would have one of my co-workers bring it back to me. Save you the shipping. However, I'm sure it works.

Mike,

I guess that is pretty reasonable, but that's above my comfort zone while I'm going through some essential items on my boat. Let me check with the admiral and see what she wants to do.

Thanks,

Mike
 
Ok no worries.

By the way - i tried to send you a PM but it says your full.
