Engel USA Wins Best of Show Award at ICAST
OutdoorHub 07.28.14
Getting an armful of rods and reels to a favorite fishing spot, or out to a kayak or paddleboard, can be a challenging task, especially because a typical angler will probably carry a load of other tackle and gear along as well. Now, thanks to Engel USA’s new award-winning Cooler/Dry Boxes with Rod Holders, that trip will be a little easier. Engel Cooler/Dry Boxes with Rod Holders received the Best of Show Award for a new Tackle Management Product at this year’s International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades, better known as ICAST.
These innovative new products start with our proven 19 qt. and 30 qt. Cooler/Dry Boxes. These handy coolers are perfect for a day out on the water. Their UV-resistant outer shell is both durable and rugged. Lightweight insulation will easily hold onto the cold for one to two days. A recessed carry handle and shoulder strap with integrated guides make it easy to grab or sling over your shoulder, freeing both hands for more gear. Whether on the way or on the water, every fisherman will appreciate the solid design and construction of Engel Cooler/Dry Boxes with Rod Holders.
Our standard-sized rod holders don’t just screw into the sidewall of the cooler. Instead, we use a specially-molded bracket that’s attached to the cooler wall from the inside with four stainless steel screws. This bracket provides added strength and rigidity to the cooler, and the rod holders stay firmly attached trip after trip, season after season, without compromising the cooler sidewalls. Like all Engel Cooler/Dry Boxes, these feature a waterproof EVA lid seal to keep water out. This makes it perfect for carrying a lunch and cold drinks – or for storage of those items that need to be kept dry, like cell phones, cameras, tablets and the like. In fact, by using our Engel Cooler Pak instead of ice, you can do both – keep drinks cold, and store personal electronics in the hanging basket that’s included with every cooler.
Now there’s an easy way to get rods and reels to the water without losing your cool.
The Engel 30 Qt. and 19 Qt. Cooler/Dry Boxes with Rod Holders come in white or tan and are available in select tackle shops and online. MSRP for the 19 Qt. UC19-RH / UC19T-RH is $74.99 and the 30 Qt. UC30-RH / UC30T-RH is $84.99.
