I don't trust the "locals", especially down the canal. Anything of value comes with me.

If your not mashing on keys the aquapac is the shizzle.

I use it on the Yak... I've swam w/it (Unintentionally ).

It works AWSOME. They say you can talk through it. I thought it was BS. Works exactly as advertised.

I heard they're coming out with waterproof watches. I know it sounds crazy, but I heard it from a reputable source. I'm gonna hold off myself until I can confirm that it's true though. It just seems like that technology is so futuristic.

What...PAY for a watch when I get a phone w/ a clock for free....that makes NO Sense...

I don't wear watches....i break them within weeks of buying them....so I've given up.
