I have a wood plank that is attached to the right side of the fridge. It attaches to the wall and fridge. There is a spacer to fill the gap out of view.
Screws & lag bolts through the floor. The left side is up against the counter-top to remove any forward movement.

bill hFor anyone who wants a white fridge,
Home Depot has a sale on a 10 cubic footer for $299 until Aug 15.
The energy tag says 386kwh/year.

ccctimtationBill, you might also add a door lock, some type of latch or even bungee, noose etc. Nothing like a flying jar of mayonnaise.
I realize 20 mph on the water isn't that big of a threat but add 3 to 5 footers with the occasional larger one once experienced transiting Lake Michigan and hold downs and latches gain in interest. The base is screwed to the floor with clips.
