Thread update:
I ended up purchasing two white Igloo Marine 48Q coolers. I have been using them a lot recently for BBQs, chills and keeps drinks VERY chilled all day even with kidz opening and leaving the lid open. The ice cream I bought (for 80+ kidz and 15 adults) stayed chilled HARD all two days in mild 25C-28C temps.
I have used the cooler with minimal ice in it for a 3 day camp trip, returned home with ice left over. I am happy.
If you are looking for a bigger cooler head to Big 5 Sports for the 168Q Igloo for $59. I wanted to buy it but did not because it is better to separate foods to keep chilled longer / better.
