Allen, When I sailed our trailer sailor we used a portable cooler that plugged into the cigarette lighter. It worked BUT, some things to consider: The ones I've seen use Peltier plates for cooling. It drew about 5amps There was no thermostat It would only cool about 30 degrees below outside air.

I just installed a Sea Frost BD unit. Mine is air cooled, but for the Chesapeake you might want to go with the water cooled one. Call Cleave, the owner, he's really helpful and knowledgeable. Mine works a treat and was very easy to install and set up. Andy C&C 40 Peregrine Andrew Burton 61 W Na
