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.

Sailing into the Future at Antigua Sailing Week

By Mathew Channer

“Standby tack,” Canadian sailor Katy Campbell orders. The crew scrambles over the sheet lines and braces on the deck.

“Three, two, one, tack!”

I wait until the bow turns into the wind and the headsail snaps over, then crawl over the cabin top of Panacea X to the now windward side. The trim team smoothly sheets on the headsail and a competitor vessel shoots past our stern, feet away, as our Solana 45 beats eastward along Antigua’s south coast.
