6 May F day finally arrives

It's here! It's here! Our shiny new Vitrifrigo, 130L without ice box under counter fridge with an external compressor ordered at the beginning of February and made to special order in Italy was being unpacked as we walked into the shop this morning. It has taken seven weeks to be made without an ice box, an available option, and delivered to the distributor in France and then another five weeks to come by ship from France to Guadeloupe. There was a week's delay for bad weather, but it is here! You know you look at it and physically see it for the first time and it what goes through you head is 'I hope I measured the gap correctly' and 'I hope it fits through the door'. It would be very expensive mistake. Yes, the 24dc running capacity comes at a price about fives times that of a regular domestic appliance.

Here we are taking it back to Jackster on a cart with the help of Luke. He helps us to carry it across the passarelle on board and down into the saloon. It did fit through the door. We're going to plug it in and run for 24 hours to check everything is good before David starts the intricate fitting.
