DIY--Marine Style

Our freezer and fridge have performed flawlessly in our short time on the water (slip)----so much so that the awesome First Mate and I decided to keep some items in the chilled confines on the Time and Tide during the week until our return.  Unfortunately, it appears that the controller decided that the compressor wasn't getting up and going quickly enough and started short-cycling the little guy.  This was pretty detrimental to our recently cached food items and upon our return to the Time and Tide we quickly became enthusists for keeping ice in small styrofoam coolers. 



The bad boy controller that needs to have an adjustable window for compressors in different ambient temperatures and system age.  Should be a fairly straightforward fix as the part is readily available.
