Yeti has an enormous range of durable and well-built products ranging from dog bowls to coolers, and we’ve handpicked what we feel are the best YETI items to make summer island life more enjoyable. Your dad will be stoked with our top picks!
Rambler Half Gallon Jug
Whether Dad is keeping water ice cold or coffee piping hot, the YETI Rambler Half Gallon Jug is the right bottle for a full day of adventuring. He’ll never lose your bottle cap again with Yeti's MAGCAP dock. We never leave the dock without this bottle filled with water, and neither will he!

Loadout Gobox 30
Keeping equipment accessible and protected is non-negotiable for almost any of dad's hobbies—and yet typical gear cases aren’t built to stand up to the demands of the outdoors, and lack organizational capabilities. The YETI alternative is the LoadOut GoBox Gear Case. It’s waterproof, dust-proof, stackable, and meant to store must-have tools and tackle.

Tundra Haul Cooler
The YETI Tundra Haul Cooler is the traditional YETI rotomolded cooler but with wheels. Pops can now jump from car to beach or boat without throwing his back out while transporting those adult beverages.

Fly Fishing Accessories
We are proud to offer hardgoods, apparel, and accessories aimed at getting just about everyone outside in Martha’s Vineyard: From paddleboard rentals and guided trips to versatile waterproof bags and beach chairs, everyone in the family can find something at Kismet Outfitters. However, at our core, we are a fly shop. With our years of collective experience, we can outfit Dad whether he is fishing locally for striped bass or permit in Belize. When we say “Martha’s Vineyard and the World,” we mean it!
Fishpond Thunderhead Submersible Backpack
If we had to pick one pack to cover all our fishing needs, the Thunderhead Backpack might be the one! This fully submersible pack is one of the toughest we’ve tested! The waterproof zip closure and a sturdy harness system ensure a more comfortable carry. This pack will protect everything Dad could ever need for a day on the water.

Cortland Striped Bass Line
With Bass thick and the water temps still chilly, the Cortland Striped Bass Line is perfect for getting Dad dialed in on early season striper season in New England. It’s available in Float, Intermediate, Sink 8, and Blitz (floating running line with an intermediate head). They’re relatively light compared to most striper lines but punchy enough to turn over typical patterns and cut through the wind.
