I;ve used these before but only for hill walking not boating. They were fine for keeping out the elements but I'm not sure about how long they would stand up to an immersion

We use these and they are stored inside a dry bag....we also laminate stuff as an extra barrier....not ideal, but best solution we could come up with....

Thank you, I have seen both and not sure they will hold enough, forgot to say we carry almanacs that this year got damp alongwith copies of coding certs etc and info sheets. Coding require we carry everything and to date we have kept it mainly dry and now reviewing kit I wanted a better option

Cheers Dan, that is where I think we will go,

If you go onto the 'Underwater Kinetics' site they have an extensive range of 100% WATERPROOF Boxes,from small, to Briefcase size.Not the cheapest, but I've had a couple for around 15 yrs and can't fault them!

Sometimes they have to be taken outa the case to be shown to the cops. If it rains then...
That's why I have laminated color-copies of the relevant documents.
