Disappointing

By Peter Rockwell Ranked #587 - Kayak Accessories March 20, 2008

Although nothing got wet, on the whole I was disappointed with the bag. The description touted something along the lines of a "lateral mounting system" to securely attach the bag to the kayak. The system is three velcro straps on the bottom, which might have been strong, but the kayaks I used had nothing to strap them to, so I ended up putting it under the bungee straps on the kayak. I wouldn't have trusted the bungees to keep the bag in place if I'd capsized though.
The zippers were very difficult to use and after 5 days started separating from the bag.
The GPS window sort of worked, but glare off the window obscured the GPS screen a lot of the time. SInce my GPS is water resistant, clipping it to the bungee worked better, and kept it in a better orientation for reading.
I recommend not getting this bag.
