What to do with the fridge space?

In the old kitchen and under the stove we have had a fridge, now we thought of have a cooling box there instead. And the reason why it's a lot of space in there is because the water tank use to be on that side (now we have it in the front, under the beds).

We thought we could have a drawer above the cooling box to maximum the space, but if so also have the cooling box itself on a drawer.

Yeah I know, it didn't looked much to the world. But there were still a long way to go before install them into the boat.

Now it starts to look better!

My plan was to renew both all wooden parts as also the old engine (this time it was Albin 011). However, one year later my life took another turn, from Marstrand on the Swedish West Coast to Finland and the Gulf of Finland. A couple of months after our move, the new owners had a disastrous incident when the engine boiled. But like Skäreläja, an upgraded Gullholme snipa is also coveted and valuable. As you see, it clearly reminds of a Skäreläja. ...
