ive seen them made out of sheet aluminium with foam inside am very curious bout that would be great in the back of my boat !!!!

If aluminiums you're thing, the best place to go is industrial refrigeration maintenance shops. They've always got heaps of spare second hand coolroom panels out the back you can get hold of for just about nicks. Take up a lota space in a boat though...
