In Response To: Re: Float bags for SOF boat? (Randy Knauff)

: Northwest River Supply has some good tapered sto-foats that work well for
: displacement and can carry gear also.

: Randy

couldn't see if they had blow tubes, that'd be helpful. i lost the link to i think some sealine bags that stow and blow up by tube

a maybe helpful extra idea would be to buy some light dumbass cheap tapered floatbags and stick them inside the stow bag to lock the gear in place and yet give one more level of protection. could instead put under or on top of the whole good bag too(like outside it. (over'll keep the cg low - but possibly wet if holed)
