Bow stowage bag
Hi All

Had a quick search through the forum on this subject, but nothing found.

Does anybody have or know of where I can purchase a tough waterproof zipped bag that will strap into the bow on my SR4?

I have run out of stowage capacity and as I would only be storing soft, light items up front, a bow bag seems like a good solution.

'Get a bigger RIB' is not a cost effective solution at the moment!

Although it held a lot, I'll think you'll find that that was Stuart's thong !

I have once made a big one out of pvc material. When your handy you could glue one together in one evening. Wouldn't cost that much eigther.
You can buy zippers with pvc-side to glue together to the main material.

Ended up ditching my bow bag - too hard to get in and out of, didn't keep things dry and not much room either. Will measure it up at the weekend and PM you to see if it'd work for you. It's yellow mind...

Now use a couple of ortlieb rucksack liners. Durable, waterproof and easy to clip on and off.

Thank fkk I'm not vain! Oh well if you take the pi** as much as I do then I guess you gotta expect some back

P7 make sure you lubricate that camera!


I do have a couple of Thongs left and they are perfect for Sea Riders I have had one fitted to my Sea Rider by David Manning Marine and it looks fine!

I am a little late on this
but hopefully I can give some good input.

I've tried dozens of 'waterproof bags' for the magazine
and this one is honestly the only one that i personally own.
They come in all kinds of sizes and colors
it even floats when sealed so all your stuff wont end up at the bottom of the ocean.

I don't get anything from them - so its not a sales pitch
this is just the product i like and use
http://www.drybags.com/home.html

hopefully they'd be able to ship or have a distributor on your end
