David, Did you read this? http://www.cncphotoalbum.com/doityourself/refrigeration
Don't know how the reefer cabinetry in your 33-1 is made but in my 35-1 it's a large molded insert. Removing the fiddle rails just exposed the top of the molded insert. There was no joint under the rails. My buddy with a sister boat pulled the rails and cut the countertop under the rails to remove the icebox in order to add insulation. Depending on how your icebox is made, I'd think long and hard before tackling adding insulation. Dennis C.
