Seems that coolers are the talk of the town lately. What kind of cooler are you using and where on your 230 do you store it. I would like to find something that would fit under the bench seat when folded out. I have always used a cheap igloo and it has never failed to keep drinks cold for a full day on the lake. Used to use a Yeti back in the day when i would do primitive camping in the Cali mountains for 4-5 days with out a refresh. Seems overkill for a day on the lake.

does this fit gatorade bottles or just soda cans?
It flexes and can fit Gatorade / water bottles, etc including ice on top too. It’s 8.5” tall so there’s plenty of room for your beverages and ice.

I use something similar that we picked up at Walmart. I like the pockets because we can put plates, napkins, corkscrew, etc. in them. It's just the right size to slide behind the passenger seat.

I just bought an rtic 20 for the bimini trip. It fits under the seat behind the captains chair. But it fills up that space. One day I am going to copy what someone else did on here and remove the factory cooler from under the bow seat to add more normal storage. That cooler works fine but the drain is too high and water sits in it. We find it easier to load a cooler at home and put it on the boat and remove it at the end if the day.
