Up until quite recently I had always thought that Aquapac<\/a> only produced waterproof bags for gadgets. As it turns out the range covers so much more. Whilst checking out the Aquapac online store<\/a> a couple of the products looked of particular interest. One of the products that caught my eye was the 60L Noatak wet\/dry bag<\/a>. <\/p>\n

From Aquapac:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our Noatak bags are extraordinarily adaptable to suit a wide range of different lifestyles, tasks and pursuits. If you’re going out walking, biking or paddling they make comfortable, lightweight daypacks. If you’re going sailing you can use them as stash bags, or as emergency grab bags.<\/p>\n

The Noatak is a roll top dry bag with a couple of main differences. The bag is constructed from light but super tough ripstop waterproof nylon. The edges are bound and all stress points have been re-enforced. The bad itself is internally divided into two compartments that allows you to carry your wet\/dry kit in the same bag without getting everything wet.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"DSC04014\"<\/p>\n

The bag come supplied with removable straps that allow you to wear the bag as a rucksack or as an over the shoulder duffle. <\/p>\n

\"DSC04013\"<\/p>\n

The closure is a simple roll down system that most of us are familiar with. Rolling it down around 6 times gives a really good waterproof seal. I tested the Noatak in a capsized kayak and although the Noatak is rated to IPX-6 (Protected against heavy seas – Water projected at all angles through a 12.5mm nozzle at a flow rate of 100 liters\/min at a pressure of 100kN\/m2 for 3 minutes from a distance of 3 meters) I didn’t have any issues with water ingress. <\/p>\n

\"DSC04010\"<\/p>\n

A lash tab (the bonded panel) allows the Noatak to be strapped down or even have bits and bobs strapped to it. <\/p>\n

\"DSC04006\"<\/p>\n

The timing of the arrival of the Noatak couldn’t have been better. Landing just before the start of the Easter holidays has meant that the drybag has been put through it paces.<\/p>\n

Over the last few weeks the Noatak has been thrown from boat to boat (dropped in the water once), used for storage within a canoe, carried safety kit during a canyoneering trip, stashed in the back of a couple of kayaks and has even been used on a couple of short shore based hikes, although the 60L one is probably a little on the large side for a daypack. Throughout the Noatak has kept its contents dry and if its contents were both of the wet and dry variety it has kept the two nicely separated. I can’t fault it.<\/p>\n

I plan to pick up a 25L version to use as a grab bag for some emergency kit in the car\/kayak.<\/p>\n
