    I'm looking to upgrade my boat cooler and curious what you swashbuckling lads and lassies use to transport your cold beverages of choice. I'd love to get a Yeti but robbing a bank ain't my thang, so some sort of substitue will have to do. I have a cooler seat that doesn't do much more than store PFD's, so I'm looking for something I can transport easily but doesnt look like I'm off to lunch in 3rd grade. If there's anything this forrume does well besides provide medical advice it's drink, so help a swellie out here

    Just a simple basic Coleman cooler, this is my go-to unless we have more people and need a bigger cooler then gotta get the one with wheels out, but this does the job 90% of the time.

    RTIC is the same quality as Yeti with half the price. Still not as cheap as a coleman...

    I have had this same cooler for probably 10 years and it's still in great shape

    ^ Colemans: Amer made (Kansas), durable like DP says & not with the 'luxe' price tag that everything seems to be burdened with these days.

    this is what I'm talking about, thanks dudes. Those RTIC ones look awesome, but they almost fall into the 'too good to be true' category with the features and price

    I gotta second the Coleman coolers and that has nothing to do with it being my last name. HA HA

    Any cooler you have to actually email for a quote, seems like they might be expensive. They look similar to the Yetti and RTIC, same quality I assume?
