Yeti Gamecooler Icebox 25 Ltr

Default Yeti Gamecooler Icebox 25 Ltr

This new cooler from the Cool Icebox Company really does live up to its name as it will happily carry up to 10kg of fish or boilies and keep them frozen and fresh for several days. This is best achieved by chilling the box down for a couple of hours before use with either ice or ice packs. If you intend to use it or one of its larger stable mates for keeping your fish fresh for the table then a layer of ice in the bottom followed by fresh or sea water depending on your catch will retain the fresh caught flavour of your catch.

When you return home the box can simply be drained from its inbuilt drain plug and given a rinse in warm soapy water ensuring that no stains or smell remain.The secret behind the cold retaining ability of the Yeti boxes is the very high level of insulation built into their polyethylene shell 50mm+ in most cases.

Of course it’s no use having great insulation if the lid is a poor fit and this is another area where the Yeti scores highly, the lid has a recessed groove that houses a substantial flexible gasket that completely seals the box once the lid is closed and held tight by a pair of large rubber catches.

These Yeti Gamecooler boxes range in size from 25ltr to 140ltr with a smaller 16ltr Lunchmate available, albeit with slightly less insulation. The larger sizes are ideal for boat fishermen who not only want to keep a decent quantity of bait fresh or frozen but also want to take home decent fresh fish fillets rather than limp grey smelly offerings at the end of a long hot day or several days trip.

The external size of the Gamecooler model is 47cm wide x 30cm deep x 38cm high and has internal dimensions of 35cm wide x 23cm deep x 28cm high to the top lip and as the name suggests a volume of 25ltrs.

The boxes are available in Olive Green or White and available direct from the companys website.

Prices range from £55.99 for the smallest 16ltr model, to £89.99 for the 25ltr model reviewed up to the largest 140ltr size at £260.99.
