Rotomolded cooler vs standard cooler: Rotomolded wins for boats

Rotomolded coolers (Yeti, Pelican, RTIC) hold ice 2–3 days on a boat; standard coolers turn to lukewarm puddle by noon. The thick molded plastic and foam eliminate air gaps and sweating. Prioritize a drain plug and tie-down loops, and skip expensive brands — RTIC works just as well.
