    Must be nice to have that kind of space over the reefer...I don't. The
    lift-out lid (1" wood) had NO insulation when I got the boat. I've
    since added a couple of inches of styrofoam to the inside top of the
    icebox and the inside of the lid, covered with -- what else -- duct
    tape. It doesn't look bad and prevents the styrofoam from flaking off
    when bumped.

    I'm really wondering if someone hasn't come up with a system to lift
    out/swing out various containers within the icebox, maybe on some kind
    of track / rail system, so that in one smooth motion -- one lifting of
    one handle -- you can have access to everything or at least to every
    container in the system.

    A market need exists -- hasn't anyone filled it yet?
