Good Dry Bag_CHEAP!!

[gunner]

I've been searching for dry bags to put my camping gear in and found these at Sierra Trading Post.

I purchased medium size and it holds my tent and kermit chair. You can't beat it for the price.

I have this bag for my sleeping bag, air mattress and extra layers:

Those are all nice bags. I have been using this Cabela's bag for years and it works very well.

The "horizontal" roll-top bags are easier than the "vertical" roll-tops to pack. The ones that open/close on the end ("vertical") are ok for long stuff like tents and sleeping rolls, but I still prefer the ones that open across the top.

gunner, did you see these at Seattle Sports? http://www.sierratradingpost.com/s/duffel-bags-waterproof/

I agree with Venture about the top vs the end.

For the non-Canadians http://www.twistedthrottle.com/article/articleview/461/1/40/

What I am looking for is a dry duffel that is 22 x 13 x ?? In travel mode the rear seat will be removed as well as the plastic under the rear rack. Then the rack will be lowered. Looking for a lower CoG and a good valley to fasten the bag. surprising there are many bags with those dimensions. The TT D38 (the expensive one) seems to be a good fit with good quality from a good vendor.

I like it and it's half the price of the Outdoor Research bag the same size.

Thought I would resurrect this thread rather than starting a new one of similar topic.

I've been searching for a good waterproof bag that's not too big and won't break the bank. I've looked at a number of great looking bags. Seems like Watershed is one of the best out there, but really overkill for what I need. The Bike Specific ones are great because of all the tie downs, but honestly, I never had an issue tying my stuff down on the bike, so I ended up buying two of the bags in the link. Can't find any bad reviews and they're totally waterproof (for what I'll be going through with them). The Best thing about them is the price. $31.00. I ordered two and got charged shipping on one, not to mention that they are the perfect size to fit length wise on my back seat - 24" from the rear rack to the front of the reat seat and it holds 70 liters.
They seem to be out of stock at several stores, but I'm sure this is the busy season for them.
Has anyone tried these?

I bought a duffel style dry bag at Academy sports in the Kayaking section. I rode for about 5 hours in the pouring rain last week and everything was perfectly dry inside.

I like the link above

I purchased a Watershed Chatagooga and it is really nice. Have not tried it out yet, but looks very tough. I have two Cabellas dry duffles and they are huge. I really only need them for camping. The Cabellas have been through many hard rains and have never leaked, I hope the Watershed will do the same.

I have read excellent reviews on the watershed products. Apparently they're good to 300 ft with a lifetime guarantee. I'm sure they'll meet your expectations.

What is the cost of the dry bags that have been mentioned other than Blue Water?

My Cabelas are 99.00 each and are about 56 liters. I purchased them years ago and the price was less. The Watershed was about 30 liters and was 87.00 shipped

Is this the kind of thing you're looking for ???? It isn't that cheap, I guess, but looks like it would be a good one. They make a bigger one, too.

I didn't know Givi sold dry bags. Looks nice, but I put in an order for two of those 70 liter dry pak. I'll post my thoughts when I get them.
Thanks.
