Aquapac Heavyweight Waterproof Drybag

Bought the Aquapac 25L Heavyweight Drybag to use on a Canoeing trip on the River Arun and it didn’t disappoint. Perfect size for all of the gear I needed to carry, clipped safely onto the canoe and kept all of my kit bone dry - what more can I say..!!!

I wanted extra protection for my camera kit (in its dedicated camera bag) during 'wet landings' from a dinghy. I'd reckoned a 5 litre bag would be too tight. Seeing this one advertised as 7 litres I thought it would be ideal - better than a full 10l size I did not need.It was advertised as 7 litres and said 7l on the cardboard it came attached to. But a tag sewn into a seam inside says 5l. I haven't measured it precisely but 5l seems more credible, and its limited diameter made it awkwardly tight for my camera bag. I also found the top didn't close as securely as expected.It was made of good heavy duty material, though, which others looked not to be.

Lovely colour, well made, looks great.. but sadly it seems to be defective as both ends of the buckle are same and therefore cannot be made to connect

So far so good! We take this bag supping with us! It’s 25L and easily carries our jumpers (family of 4) incase needed, plus our pack lunches, keeping everything dry.

Absolutely love this dry bag. Very robust and works a treat.

I love the bag and it appears well made. It has 2D rings on the grab handle which is why I chose it over the overboard item. It offers the chance to wear it as a backpack. I've only given 3 stars due to the packing. It has arrived with a huge crease where flat packed that doesn't line up with the closure flap. Very annoying. It also looks almost pinched in places which I'm hoping hasn't compromised the integrity of the material. I would send it back but I need to use it NOW.

When it comes to waterproofing it was great the color is nice too but the material that is made of got this pretty bad brown/yellow discoloration that happened only after its 2nd use even though I rinsed it with tap water and soap (I always rinse all my water gear after each use). I contacted the seller about the warranty and possible replacement and I will update when I hear from them. One other thing I didn't like was that the strap's clip is made of metal and I can already see it rusting and again this is only after 2 uses on my very first trip after buying it. The positive is that it does protect everything, allá contents inside since the waterproofing is great. I used it the the ocean for 2 hrs and in a kayak for 3 hrs.Update: Aquapac stood by their warranty and sent me a new one. Overall Aquapac is a very nice company.

まだ旅行では使ってはいないですが、これから使う予定です。試しにバッグを入れてみましたが、防水がしっかりしているようです。とても期待しています。マチがあり肩にかけられるのがいいと思います。
