Storage bag/duffle for SD365?

[jspringator]

I need some sort of storage bag or box for my Saturn SD365. What have you used with success for this 12 foot air floor boat?

Do you mean like a Bow box or underseat storage

Neither. A bag to put the deflated boat in.

Im using a zodiac bag that I really dont like. Im considering getting a large dufflebag with a zipper.
I keep me boat in a lockable storage box on my deck. like the ones made by rubbermaid or suncast , that they sell in the home improvement stores.
I have one that just houses everything for the boat except engine and fuel. I store that separately

I ended up getting one of the better hand trucks from harbor freight and strapping the folded boat to it. Easy to move around! I just put it on without a cover. it sits in my unwindowed garage.

All sibs comes with their carrying bags, didn't you get one when buying the 365 ?

Even thou they do come with bags. They are not very friendly to use.
Once you start customizing the boat. The standard bag just wont due. Since in most cases it is really not a bag at all.
This issue only affects people who can not leave the boat inflated. Most people who live in the Lower 48 states have this problem because we have no place to store a trailer. Thus the reasons we got SIBS in the first place. In theory we can launch our boats anyplace. In reality we cant. Once we have to register our SIBS they can only be launched from boat ramps.

Yep i agree with you Ronald. (Not a bag at all mine is a zodiac bag). M boat weights about 50+ lbs and that cheap material bag wont cut it for long i can feel the handles ripping slowly. If you find a big enough double bag to fit a 365 please let us know

I have this same boat and yes the bag can be a pain. I see you already got your questioned answered, but how do you like the boat? I originally bought it because of not having to have a trailer, but found it was heavy and bought a trailer anyways. What type of fishing do you do?

Hey fellas! Put me in the plus one category... If you find something... post it. I'd like to know too. Really hating the office cell phone policy. No usage other than lunch. Missing out on all the threads. Lol. @ Weimer haven't forgotten the maintenance party... life throwing me a few curve balls of late

Re: Storage bag/duffle for SD365?

For my M4 I only use a single cinch strap, maybe an inch wide. It's very versatile and to some extent lets the boat dry out a little better. It does not, however, provide any protection to the boat. But in my case, the boat goes from the shore into the back of the SUV, and then into the garage. It's cheap, simple, light weight and works well if you assemble and disassemble every time.

Catch them and throw them back. Nothing is better at killing stress then Hanging on the water listening to the chop smack into your boat lol

I'm from Zanesville,OH. If you guys got any pics of your inflatable trailers you can share I'd like to see them. Right now I haul mine on a jetski trailer I turned into a flat utility trailer, so after I'm in the water I use the hand pump to inflate the keel. I'd like to just have two bunks but don't know how that would support the boat with an air floor.

Re: Storage bag/duffle for SD365?

No trailers... we roll and chuck! Lol. Roll em up... Chuck em in the vehicle (which ranges from crossover ute to extended minivan to sedan... for the largest in our fleet... Weimed... correct me if I'm wrong on that one but Smashed gets his 430 into a car... correct?). Been having trouble with pics but the calling all new yorkers thread has links to videos. Have to figure out the pic thing
