Following on the theme of acquiring cool camping stuff :D I got a hankering for a decent esky, went out today and came home with a IceKool (made by EvaKool) icebox. With a bit of luck it'll spend a bit of time full of fish :)

That is a big box - If you have a couple of paddles you could use it for a canoe

Are they the ones that keep ice for a week?

Yeah, keep block ice up to 5 days. I am gonna make an alloy box to hold blocks without leaking everywhere, or an alloy tank and fill it and freeze it myself :)

They are also good for filling with crushed ice and sea water to make an ice slurry for throwing bled fish into.

RRP is $225 and is what I paid. Prob a little more than some others, less than others and being made by evakool I was happy to buy - plus Baz has the 50L version and vouched for them :)

Canoe you say hey? That doesn't seem like too bad an idea!!!

I need a wire basket for it too - anyone suggest where I can find one?

i got a 60ltr one online from a place called techniice. Was a special they were running and only cost $115. I just spent a month camping in Tassie and the esky was my only source for food.........can't say I had any complaints because it managed to keep a bag of party ice for a couple of days

Just looked at the site and they have a new years special for $119-

Go to the rota moulded boxes section at http://www.techniice.com.au/

Before anyone asks.......no I don't sell them or am affiliated........just figure they are a cheaper alternative and they work. Cheers

Check out the 800L one on the tecniice site. That would hold alot of beer.
