You will need a larger inverter than 300W to run the fridge, probably 1000W. You need one large enough to overcome the lock rotor draw when the fridge first starts. The LRD may be listed on the rating plate of the fridge.
Also, if you wish to power all the receptacles, you'll need to either plug the shore power cord into the inverter and shut off the 12V converter or install a transfer switch and power just what you need when on inverter.
I think you miss the part where I told I have a Norcold N302 2.7 cu-ft fridge which is a gas absorption fridge and it doesn't have a compressor. Household fridge requiert a 1200W+ current to spin up the compressor, but since gas absorption fridge use a small heating element to boil coolant, it requiert small power.
Yes, sorry, I see that now, the coffee has worn off. :o
