Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions below

  • Marine coolers are built specifically for boating, fishing, and outdoor use. Unlike normal household coolers, marine coolers have UV-resistant shells, extra-thick insulation, saltwater-safe hardware, and heavy-duty latches that withstand extreme heat, rough handling, and long hours on a boat deck. Regular coolers usually lose ice within a few hours, while marine coolers from brands like Igloo, Coleman Marine, YETI, Engel, and Pelican are designed to retain ice for days. If you’re storing bait, fish, drinks, or food during long trips, a marine-grade cooler gives far better durability and ice performance.

  • Premium marine coolers typically offer 3 to 10+ days of ice retention, depending on size, insulation thickness, and brand. Rotomolded coolers like YETI Tundra, Engel DeepBlue, or Pelican Elite are known for multi-day ice retention because of their commercial-grade foam and airtight gaskets. Standard coolers from Igloo Marine or Coleman Coastal Xtreme generally provide 2–5 days. The lifespan also depends on usage—pre-chilling the cooler, keeping the lid closed, and limiting sunlight exposure significantly extends ice life.

  • For a day trip, a 30–50 qt cooler is usually perfect for drinks and basic food storage. For storing fish or long multi-day outings, a 70–125 qt marine cooler is recommended. Offshore anglers or groups often choose 150 qt or 200 qt coolers for catch storage. Check your boat’s available space—many buyers choose narrow or long coolers like Igloo Marine Ultra because they fit better on decks or under seats.

  • Most flares expire every 36–48 months. Using expired flares is illegal and dangerous because performance can fail during emergencies. Always check expiration dates before leaving the dock, and store extra LED distress lights and smoke signals as backup.

  • The engine room should include:

    • Automatic fire suppression system
    • BC or ABC marine fire extinguisher
    • Smoke detector or heat detector
    • Fire-resistant insulation

      These tools help stop engine fuel, oil, and electrical fires before they spread.
