Extraordinary Cooler Keeps Adventures Fresh

PacBak Cooler

Dec 21, 2023

Whether boating, fishing, paddling or camping, the PacBak P88-MK Cooler keeps adventures fresh. Built in Alaska (!), this 88 qt. cooler is unlike any other on the market. The Alaskan manufacturer claims it can withstand 24 hours with a 1,250-pound Alaskan Kodiak Brown Bear.

Every design aspect provides optimum functionality, including simultaneously keeping contents both hot and/or cold, an integrated cutting board and a removable table.

The thick insulated walls of the three individual internal compartments of the rotomolded PacBak P88-MK Cooler reliably separate hot from cold and wet from dry. The lid of the smallest 8qt space on top removes to become a cutting board. Underneath is a 22qt section that’s 18.875″L x 9″W x 8″D. The main 58 qt. compartment to the right measures 18.75″L x 14.5″W x 13.25″D. Both bottom sections drain without tilting.

Externally, the removable top becomes a table that attaches to either side of the cooler. Integrated legs fold down to create a massive 10.2sqft work surface. All hardware is stainless steel for outdoor durability, even the bottle openers on both front corners. Rugged strap handles make toting the 65 lb. cooler easier. Measuring just 32.5″L x 22.75″W x18.75″ H overall, it’s ideal for off-grid living for days on end.

With special holiday pricing, the PacBak P88-MK Cooler is US$549. It’s offered in white, seafoam, sky blue, coral, sand, army green, Alaska spring camo and green camo. The ROAM 18-V Portable Vacuum Sealer, which fits perfectly in the smallest 8q. compartment, is $199. Both are available as a Combo for $699. PacBak will soon debut a 60-quart version of its P88-MK Cooler.

ENVGO NV1: Back to the Future

By Andy Adams

Up to this point, I feel that most electric boats have not been very exciting. The motors have been mainly small portable models for dinghies. There are some high-horsepower motors available, but they look like regular outboard motors to be used on conventional boats. Until now, there hasn’t been an electric boat that really makes a statement. Enter the ENVGO NV1.

Canada’s Superior: the North Shore

Story and photos by Jennifer M. Smith

We’d been north before on a short two-week cruise. At the time, we were unprepared for the isolation, the lack of cell phone coverage, and the spotty VHF reception. Since then we’ve repowered, installed Starlink, and retired from work. Now, with confidence in our engine and our connectivity and more time to sail, we were Superior-ready.
