CS3 ice chest/cooler size?

[ixispy44]

Would anyone know the dimensions of the under seat ice chest/cooler included on the CS3? I'm picking my boat up next weekend and because of location of my dock/set up it will be easier to utilize the space by dropping a soft cooler down into it (already preloaded with drinks) and I'd like to maximize the size/carrying capacity of the soft cooler I get to fit best.

Call cobalt they will measure it for you or get the measurements. I do the same. I have an RTIC 20 and it fits in perfectly.

Or give your dealer a call.

Apologies I should have mentioned my experience with dealer/Cobalt HC - dealer isn't sure & didn't have another one handy to measure until mine is ready for delivery this coming weekend. Called Cobalt HC and was transferred to Rick in Technical Services but he was also not sure and said he'd have to go down and try and measure on the line when they were building one... didn't seem like that was going to happen overnight.

Is anyone aware of drawings or a replacement part catalog that's available for us to dig through? This cooler is marketed as a "removable ice chest" so I would have to think it could be ordered and a spec exists somewhere as they probably aren't all the same across the Cobalt line.

Rick is awesome. I'll dig.

Rick is awesome. I'll dig.

Appreciate it liquid. Know it's not the most exciting thing on here but I'd love to know the size before picking up so I can have cooler squared away. Planning on entertaining a bunch of folks opening weekend and keeping them quenched is important or could turn into an unruly crew.

Can't find anything more than you have, it does say removable though...

Diagram is not very helpful.

Yeah I couldn't find greater detail in supplied material either. Was looking online and found 2 different sized used ice chests for sale from "great lakes skipper" (which btw looks like sells a bunch of Cobalt parts)

Guess I'm going to wait to receive the boat and measure myself. Will follow-up and post here just to close the loop in case anyone else ever needs.

Appreciate everyone's input and feedback!

Give my dealer a call. Not sure if they still have it in stock. You can check there web page. But it was in the showroom last Time I was there. I spent some time in it.

I'm swinging by my Cobalt dealer today. I'll bring a tape measure and check one out if they have one.

I decided to roll the dice and ordered an RTIC softpac 40. It's roughly 17" tall x 18.5" wide x 12" deep. Hoping it fits in the cooler/seat behind the R5 helm. Don't want to carry the hard cooler in the boat anymore. If it doesn't fit I will find a spot for it.

I have 20.30.40 RTIC soft pack. My 20&30 fit inside the cooler my 40 sits on the cockpit floor. It's not really a big deal for me I put it behind the captains chair and it's out of the way. I actually went out on Sunday and threw in a few hard packs and a large bag of ice and the ice is still frozen this morning in there.

Thanks. If it doesn't fit I'll place it like you. If it gets here soon enough, I will get a chance to use it this weekend.

They didn't have a single CS1 or CS3 in stock. Sorry I couldn't help! I'm anxious to know as well though, as my CS1 should be arriving this week.
