NRSBill's Bag 65L Dry Bag - Waterproof Storage Bag

Took this on a three day canoe trip down the Buffalo River. My father and I paddled tandem and we are both not skinny people. This meant, with all our gear and ourselves, the boat was sitting pretty low in the water and even in very small wave trains, we took on water and were constantly bailing water out of the boat. On top of that, it rained the entire last day of the trip. This bag was always placed right in the middle of the boat at the lowest point so it was pretty much sitting in water for three days. It didn't leak at all with three turns for closure. I think it is worth the money and am pleased with the purchase. Hopefully it will last many years to come.I will say it took me some practice to learn how to get things in and out of it efficiently. Because it is so large, you almost have to half climb inside the bag to get it packed or unpacked. Because of this, I would NOT recommend trying to open this bag while you are in a canoe. Try to put only things you will need once you get on land so you can put it on a stable surface and climb inside it to get what you need out or to pack it back up. I used it for my tent, all my sleeping gear, land shoes, and a few other items that I wouldn't need until we got to a place to set up camp each night.

Bought it for my daughter’s class trip to the Colorado River. Held all her gear. She carried it as a backpack so it worked well for her to move from place to place. Kept all of her gear dry and ready. Recommended!

In hindsight, I maybe should have bought the largest one. Or maybe I should just carry less crap. This bag feels totally different from my cheaper “regular” dry bags. Really heavy duty. Tough buckles. Nice shoulder straps. Great bag overall.

It is very durable, kept my gear dry, easy to use. No issues at all. Pleased with it.

This bag has quality in every respect. Most likely the best choice of dry bag. I especially like the versatility of having straps for carrying as well as removal to stow gear without straps.

Outstanding Dry Bag. I used it on a 5-day rafting trip in Hell's Canyon, and all my stuff was totally dry even thru the rapids. Love the rubber flappy seal at the bag opening - they did a great job and the velcro on the inside to hold the bag closed when you roll it was a great design idea. So glad I got the model with backpack straps. I hauled by stuff op the hill into camp each night and had hands free to carry the tent and other gear too.once the bag is on my back, it feels well-balanced and easy to carry. 110L holds a ton of stuff too, easy to get the three-roll foldover on top to seal the bag. The only other thing is I'd like the style to have a extra d-ring somewhere around the haul loop so I can attach my name tag to it on a group trip. Don't want anyone walking off with it by mistake.

Good bag for racing and canoeing. I bought a second one too. I used "D" rings to put them together and carry one front and one in back for portaging.

Pro: it will keep a ton of gear dryCon: all the weight sits on those shoulder muscles that connect to your neck. If I had to do it again I'd pay the extra money for a dry bag with a better suspension system
