I have a 2002 180 Dauntless and it had a 54 qt cooler with a seat when I purchased it. There were 2 cooler cleats with areas that appeared to straps to hold down the cooler. I bought the boat used, so I am not sure if this is an OEM part or not.
However, the straps were not there were I bought it.
My question:
1) Is the cooler and cleats a stock part?
2) Does anyone know what the part number is for the cooler straps?
3) If so, where can I find the straps for purchase?
I've searched for weeks and cannot find anything useful t all.
Thanks!

Eric -
The cooler is a standard Igloo Marine cooler and available at most stores and on the web. Shop around, prices vary.
The bracket and cords are whaler parts but the often are variants of a commercially available item.
To find the OEM or close proximity part, you can visit your local dealer.
Personally, I recommend you contact Sue Lodel at Beacon Marine/Twin Cities Marine. She is the Parts GOD and revered both here and abroad.
Tell her WhalerCentral referred you.
