I can say the Canvas Craft insulated model is a very nice portable. The best I have seen for an insulated on the market today.

The insulated models are a fisherman's friend. They are very warm.

I have the r2-tec 300 and really like it.Very warm.Mine is a 2007 frabil fortress gt.You never have any water dripping from the roof.The inside of the tub will frost up any very cold temps.Here`s a couple pictures of it.

The 200 is a bit smaller than the 300..as the 300 is the Fortress model...and the 200 is a Magnum, yet I would love either on the ice.

You find a good deal on a 200 R2-Tec...jump on it!

You'll know soon enough... smile I am sure you will find a way to make it work. If anything put it on your ATV trailer when you pick one up to pull your house.

I can load it myself in a GMC crew cab, I use one side of an atv ramp in the middle and just push it up. It's heavy but all the large two man deep sleds are. I have hyfax, but it's only pulled by hand maybe 25'. If I can't park the truck that close to where I'm fishing it will get pulled with the ranger.
