COCKPIT BAGS

Bags themselves are North Water side carry bags and under deck bag secured by plastic clips on rubber pads glued to inside of kayak.  Finding a glue that will hold the rubber pads securely is a challenge.  Two of the pads came loose after 1000 miles and were re-attached.  They are a very nice way to add storage in otherwise unused space in a kayak.  Dry bags are needed inside the carry bags for anything you don't want wet.
