Minor thing but just wondering, the main fridge in the galley has no drain on mine..it’s a pain when we leave as it defrosts leaves a load of water in bottom with no where to go..is this the norm on 460’s?

Hi, don’t know about the 460, but is the same on Night Train and yes it is a pain!

All the best

The water seems to settle in the area shaped for bottles underneath the freezer plate. It looks like the moulding could accept a drain but then you need to work out where to take the drain to.

I had a drain on my last boat and it was a pain! Would drain into the bilges and swish around all the limber holes. I was relived to see there was no drain on my 418 and all the condensate is held within the bottom of the fridge where it can easily be dealt with. Just a different way of looking at it ;)
