YETI Tundra 160 Cooler

The Tundra 160 is a very large hard cooler for longer trips, group fishing days, catering, camping or use on a boat where a smaller cool box will not give enough space. It is best suited to being loaded in a vehicle, trailer or on deck rather than carried far by hand, especially once full of ice, food and drinks.

It is designed for serious capacity, with space for up to 229 cans only, or 69.9 kg of ice only. In real use you will usually want a mix of contents and ice, so plan for less usable drink or food space than the headline can count. One removable dry goods basket is included for keeping items raised away from ice and meltwater.

Yes, this is one of the more practical YETI hard coolers for boat and fishing use if you have the space for it. Non-slip feet help reduce movement, and tie-down slots make it easier to secure to a boat, trailer or vehicle. It is a large cooler, so check where it will live before ordering.

The Tundra 160 uses thick insulated walls, pressure-injected insulation, a close-fitting lid system and a freezer-quality gasket to help retain cold air. For best results, pre-chill the cooler, use a good amount of ice and keep it closed as much as possible. Reducing empty air space inside also helps it perform better on longer trips.

Clean it after use with a cloth and a mild mix of washing-up liquid and warm water, then let it dry before storage. A brush can help with tougher marks. The Vortex drain system is designed for quick draining, which is useful after melting ice, fish storage or long days out. See our YETI cleaning guide for more detailed care advice. Avoid leaving it open and unattended around children.
