Sub Zero Model 801 freezer/fridge
Hello. The Admiral and I are considering very seriously a Trojan 12 Meter International. Beautiful boat. Fits all our needs, wants, and much more. A concern we have is the Sub Zero Model 801. The one in the boat is a 1989 model and still running strong, but....... What have your experiences been with this unit and can we expect more years of trouble free use? Can any refridgeration place repair it? I know parts are scarce if any at all. Your comments are encouraged and appreciated. Thanks.
Jim
Welcome. I wouldn't let a fridge influence the decision as much as the history or condition of the rest of her. My experience is mixed with refrigeration. If it stops working, service depends on the bad part. I would expect most cases in that age range would expect to need a new unit if it fails. That's my commentary but maybe others have had better luck.
