Keep Your Valuables High and Dry!


Getting Your Gear In Order:

With the spring comes hopes and dreams of vacations, boating, fishing trips, diving, boarding and more quickly come to mind. One of the most important bits of gear you may want to consider are hermetically sealed bags and all purpose pouches that keep your gear dry and free of sand, suntan lotion, grit and other elements we encounter in our favorite water sporting pursuits.

Ewa-Marine manufactures flexible and 100% waterproof products. Camera and video housings for underwater photography? No sweat, they've got one for you at pennies on the dollar by comparison to bulky, large, "hard" housings. What's really nice about them is that they're very affordable, 100% waterproof, contain clear, optical grade lenses and they're highly portable - they fit in their own carrying case after rinsing and drying off properly.

But much more than this, their range of waterproof all purpose pouches come in a variety of sizes - up to a full nautical chart size model! These pouches start very small - to carry a pager or keys, cash, hotel room key and the in between sizes can be left to your imagination.

Key uses would be any first aid items. These items must be kept like new to be of any use. They can contain emergency supplies of survival gear such as a compass, a GPS, cell phones, waterproof matches or a good lighter for fire-starting red plastic film banners for rescue, homing beacons and marking dyes. If you think of it you can find an all purpose pouch to store it in. How about baggies of trail mix, water treatment straws or pellets, candy bars etc..

Not one thing we've touched on can survive capsizing in a kayak or on a rafting/camping trip unless they are kept perfectly dry. Check out the line of Ewa-Marine waterproof all purpose sports pouches. They could really be a life saver!
