Cool Idea......
 
1 Attachment(s)
I wish I could remember where or who told me about this but I'm glad they did.

Coleman Camping Gear sells an inflatable cooler float. Will hold a 36-50 qt. cooler. Has handles and a tie ring. Price is 10.00 pus shipping/tax. Cost me 16.00 even.
Don't know about all of you, but I do run out or room in the cockpit if I bring our large cooler. I usually toss it in the water and hope it floats steady without flipping over. Now I won't have to worry. :drink: :drink:

That's pretty limited use but a great idea. We do a lot of beach parties. perfect way to transport the cooler from the boat to the beach.

As a college drunk we used to go tubing down the upper James (mild Rapids). We would go to a truck service center and get tubes out of the dumpster, clean them, patch the hole and off we'd go. I would pull a flat tube around a cooler then fill it with air. Held the cooler tight and I could stuff a fishing pole in beside it. Ended up catching a number of small mouth bass on those trips too.
Ya know....It was a lot cheaper to hang on the river in those days!!! :D

We used to see a lot of basically the same thing at Passage Key. I remeber seeing some drunk walking around with the rope to it tied around his neck. He would have been in good shape if he stepped off in a hole. :eek:

Maybe a minnkota or something.

Ok, Ok.......I thought I was passing on a useful item and all I get is sarcasm. SHEESH!! :rolleyes:

Yeah Biggus, I know it's freezing up in your neck of the woods. But down here we only have two more months of "cooler" weather. :drink: By mid March we'll be warming up. :D :D

I've got a couple of buddies that keep trying to turn my Formula into a redneck bass boat. They want to install a fishing seat and trolling motor on the bow. :eek: :eek: :eek:

Not sarcasm. Need outlet for rigging something. Anything. I haven't had my hands on a boat in months. :D

Theres a company that makes floating coolers that look like your boat and can be painted/decaled. I will try to remember the website. They are about 3' long and very cool.
