Just a little history. Back before all this new surfbag stuff came about we would go to the Army/Navy store and buy surplus gas mask bags. Had my wife sew velco on both sides of the flap and used empty shampoo bottles with the top cut off and holes drilled in the buttom. Crude but effective and cheap. Total cost with the velcro was about 5 bucks. I had my last one stolen when I left it hooked to my bumper at Fresh Pond Rock about 10 years ago. I don't think you can get the old canvas bags anymore but they were great. I had 5 or 6 set up for different conditions/places/times of the year.

No boat, back in the suds.
