Don't try to click on the url, it's too long.

Each holds 3.75 gallons and is of course quite comfortable. They have one drawback. Filling is through the twist closed valve on the inflation hose only. It takes a very long time to get completely topped up, even from a faucet. What is needed is some sort of rubber hose and funnel **************************** Take a look at this waterbag. http://www.campmor.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ProductDisplay?prmenbr=226&prrfnbr =13506 I have a couple of them. At 2.5 gallons they fit just about anywhere, even behind my seat. With a nylon cover, they can take a lot of abuse. You can hang them off a tree stub and just press the spigot. The spigot comes out and you can stick the bag under a faucet or hose. It doesn't leak (under normal use). You may need a small pair of pliars to get the spigot out. There are also replacement parts. I know they must be sold elsewhere, but Campmor is the only place I've noticed them. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************

Be sure to get the shower attachment too. It has an excellent shower head with builtin valve. If you get bags with a dark color nylon cover (they come in a variety of colors), you have a solar shower.
