I saved my  $250 GPS last weekend and was soooo glad I had spent the $19.00
on a waterproof case that added bouyancy.

We were about to practice rolls in heavy surf/clapotis, I reached around and
put my sunglasses in the day hatch then started rolling away.  A few minutes
later Jeanne said "hey, what's that floating by over there"?  Sure enough,
the GPS was bobbing along............saved by the bag!
