kooleraire as a boat ac unit?

Post by ken smith »

Going on a trip to the Keys, anybody with knowledge of using this unit. How good is it? How long does the ice last for? Any other suggestions welcome.
Thanks Ken

Ken, you can get ice every 20 to 30 miles or less in the keys.

I have the igloo 5 day 94 qt. ice chest and the ice has lasted 4 to 5 days.

A suggestion is to wrap the chest in insulation or put it (nest) inside another icechest.

Where are you planning to go to?
