Comments about NRS System 5 Dry Bag:
Used the System 5 bag for a 10 day white water canoe trip down the Salmon River in Idaho and it worked great. Even when submerged for 15 to 20 minutes and sitting in a canoe with water coming over more often than not in the rapids. Only a slight water intrusion after full submersion.

Comments about NRS System 5 Dry Bag:
This bag is BIG! I have enough room to put 3 sleeping bags in waterproof bags inside this and 3 more small drybags for my each one of my family. Have been on the Colorado River twice in a canoe and everything stayed bone dry. Was very happy how fast it shipped, because the first trip was on really short notice. Thanks NRS.

Comments about NRS System 5 Dry Bag:
I used this bag on two back to back trips down the Grand Canyon during the winter. The bag sealed well and kept everything dry. Lots of capacity in this bag which comes in handy depending on the use. Personally I would have liked the Bill's bag in combination with other smaller dry bags rather than carrying everything in this large bag. The backpack straps on the Bill's bag would be helpful. It can be difficult to get gear in and out of the bag due to its size. But all in all it kept my gear dry and held together very well.

- Good Capacity

Comments about NRS System 5 Dry Bag:
It has a huge capacity, almost too big, but with this I can put all my stuff in one bag instead of two when I go on a guided trip.
