[quote=Quarath]What they need to is make a port within a port. The outer part would be like the regular port. Maybe modified to give as much diameter clearance as possible and still do its job. This hard mounted and seal to the deck. Then an inner port with an built in cat bag similar to the Fat bag except this bag is very insulated. The outside of the bag would need to be durable and able to withstand abrasion from the inside of the hulls. This unit would screw into the first port making a seal that would not allow any water into the hulls even if the entire insulated bag was full of water. This insulated bag would then have it's own lid that can come off or open easily and is attached to it cannot be lost. Even if you open it to crab a drink and somehow capsize while it is open you cannot flood your hull or lose the cap.
You could even have a separate unit that screwed into the same port but instead of a cooler for individual drinks it was an camel-back type bladder with an insulated outer section that you can ice. The straw for the bladder would come up through the secondary lid and clip to the the shroud for easy drinking access. It could even have 2 spouts so skipper and crew don't have to share.
There goes another great invention idea I'll never get paid for but hey build away. I'd sure buy one.[/quote]
