I have been very happy with my Kitchen Box from them. The second shelf that sets up down below is great.

I will leave my socio/economic/political outlook off this post, it belongs in the eddy.

Quality box + screamin price = more time on the river

Ditto this, I got a new box from Darren a few weeks ago and so far it's perfect. I've compared it to much more expensive boxes from the other places and fail to see much if any difference. I'll stay out of the fray too but my report is it's a great product at a good price with great service.

Since 2006 FrontierPlay.com has committed 10% of their net profit or 1% of thier Gross Sales, which ever is greater to an organization that provides clean water projects in 34 countries which has affected over 3.5 million people in over 2,500 communities. The Clean Water initiative is an organization where 100% of the money goes directly to clean water projects such as boreholes, water storage and delivery systems. No money is used for administrative or fund raising expense.

In 2 years FrontierPlay has donated over $6,000 to the Clean Water Initiative which is a small way we can say thanks to the world and share in the water we all enjoy!

Hi Darren,

Can I get a kitchen box in a 36" length? My 13'10" Hyside only measures 37" wide and the 38" listed on your site would not fit.

im stunned/saddened to learn that "one size doesnt fit all",in your very,very rare case.it would seem they would be thrilled to shut down the production line,and build a custom sized one just for you,right now,and ship it to you overnite air-express,at no extra cost;that would be awesome customer service,just like you get w/a custom order at wal mart.couldnt you just cut up your boat,to make it fit this box,to take advantage of this great bargain?

Hey Kaczinski,
If he wants to shorten up the dry box, perhaps he could borrow whatever it is you are using to grind your axe?

If you want to have a fair trade argument or slag Walmart, visit the CSPAN chat boards or go piss on Mister Sam's headstone. If you want to talk about boating then quit cluttering this thread with incoherent gibberish.
