Dennis: huh? WHATEVER are you talking about? An Igloo cooler is a large foam filled plastic box that you put ice, food and drink in to keep it cold over a long time between freezers or refridgerators.

Refigerator. That's an interesting word when one thinks about it and tries to rip it apart into its lexical roots. "Re-", of course, means to "do again" as in reengage or reignite. Does this mean that one "frigerates" something to make it cold and then refrigerates it to make it cold again?
In any event, if the power quits for the next few days we don't have to worry about the food in the 'fridge/freezer going bad because we can put it outside were it's well below the freezing mark -- except for the beer that is; that can stay inside where it won't get too cold.
As far as relying on a cooler to save one's sorry backside from drowning, there are appliances designed specifically for that called "life preservers". A cooler -- of any ilk -- is a very poor substitute. For being on the water, I'd even go so far as to state: "Life preservers -- accept no substitutes."

Uh Oh, Dennis !......Remember what I said about high-calorie candy bars and such like ? You'll be up there in the two-eighties again when you've that dozen on board.
Think of the 200Lb. Superman Suit you've hung up waiting to occupy !!
e.g. Today I rowed 7053 meters in exactly 30 minutes on a Concept Ergometer. That leaves a very large hole to pour food into...
