I've had the same cooler for two years now and the handles show no sign of breaking, I just use a bungee around the leaning post legs and attached to the cooler top stop it sliding back.

Sounds like a good solution. The good thing about the handles is they're replaceable if they do break.

Check out the RTIC 40 soft cooler, 1/3 the price of the Yeti hopper and a better design for under the leaning post.

gtightline what are the dimensions of the bottom of the cooler? Trying to determine if the blocks on my '99 170CC are original.

I've got the same setup as gtightline. Kinda surprised to hear that yours didn't come with a removable cooler. Haven't shopped for a boat recently. Have removable coolers been phased out by all the boat builders? They used to be pretty much standard on inshore boats. I'd recommend some type of well-made soft sided cooler that you can fit in one of the boxes. They mold to fit the space you put them in and won't around in rough seas. I've got one made by AO Coolers that I fill up and put inside my 94 qt igloo. The liner is made from the stuff they use to make waterbeds and its guaranteed not to leak. Have fun with the new boat and welcome to the forum. What are the dimensions of the bottom of the cooler? Trying to figure out if the blocks on my 99 are original.

gtightline what are the dimensions of the bottom of the cooler? Trying to determine if the blocks on my '99 170CC are original. 1998 94 QT Marine Igloo.. 32.5 X 14.5 ....it is the original cooler, as far as I can tell the new 94 qt Igloo dimensions are different, they appear to be longer and not as tall..
