Introduced as Bean's Ice Carrier way back in 1944, the Boat and Tote was billed as a bag made of builders' canvas for hauling ice "from car to ice chest." Today you can spot our iconic tote doing heavy lifting everywhere - from the grocery store to the beach, to the library and commuter train. Tested to hold up to 500 pounds, it'll carry more than you can carry. We promise. Available in four different sizes with a secure zip top, it also makes a fantastic travel bag.

  • Spot clean.
  • Heavy-duty 24 oz. cotton canvas.
  • Double-layer base.
  • Handles tested to hold up to 500 pounds.
  • Overlapped seams are double-stitched with nylon so they won't rot or break.
  • Reinforced flat canvas bottom.
  • Add a monogram for a personal touch (or the perfect gift).
  • Natural color with contrast-tone handles in your choice of lengths.
  • Handcrafted in Maine since 1944, one tote at a time.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Quality of Canvas has declined I have several boat and totes. Disappointed in my recent order. The canvas is noticeably less structured and not as thick as my older bags. I ordered one in the fall of 2025 that was still the old quality and this one in spring 2026. I still love the bags but disappointing to see durability of material has declined while the price has increased.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not the usual LL Bean quality. I am still debating on whether or not i want to go through the hassle of returning this, but the stitching is very messy. I have more than 20 boat and totes and this is the first one with quality issues.
