Anyone know a dealer in the NOLA area? Seems like the one I want is out of stock online.

I need a new cooler for my boat and the K2 70qt would be perfect. The way the lid opens with the limited space I have is the way to go. I’d love to use my TD special, but it’s just not in the cards.

I still see them at Rouses and I bought one years ago at the backpacker but I heard K2 is going out of business.

They must be if they are out of stock online of their own products.

They haven’t updated their Instagram page since April, FWIW.

Wonder what happened

Noticed Pierre part store quit carrying them a while back. That’s where I’d gotten mine.

Rogers sporting goods has the blue 70s, new and “blemished”. That’s the only color though.

Jeanfreau's Hardware in Belle Chasse used to keep a nice selection of K2 Coolers however I haven't been in there in awhile. May be worth calling before you make the drive.

That sucks. I have one of the original 60s with the original latch style. It may be from one of their first couple runs they made. Got it at shooters in laffy. I need some new ones to put on it. It’s a great ice chest, but those latches are bleeding black now. Every time you touch them your fingers turn black and is a sum bitch to get it off. Maybe I’ll give them a call today, although I doubt they have those latches. May have to rig something...

That was the first place I looked. However it shows one dealer in Louisiana and when I put in my zipcode it pulls up stores in Nashville. Thats why I asked here, in case people had seem them in local stores.

When you click on the item it says out of stock. Something must be up with K2. I may just get an Engel 80. Similar dimensions.

I won one of the K2 50's at a DU banquet a few years back. It sucks compared to my RTIC. I wouldn't buy one

Thanks for the heads up. I may just roll with an Engel. I really just need something that fits in the space in my boat right, and also can be used as a platform to stand on.

Check out ORCA too, they are the brand I prefer if cost is the same ballpark. Looks to be size similar to what you want.
