[Paddlewise] Deck/Underdeck storage?

I've gone round and round with this issue for the last few years. Have even 
ordered various deck bags, used some, returned others for various 
reasons... poor aesthetics, difficulty opening and closing, flimsy quality, 
etc.

So far I can't seem to find anything that I like. I used to think I wanted 
something "waterproof." But my feeling now is, if it is "water resistant" 
to rain and deck spray, then it would be sufficient.  For quick access I 
don't think I'd want to store anything too valuable. For those items a dry 
bag or waterproof case is the solution.

Please let me know your experiences with deck bags. If anyone has 
particular experience with "underdeck" bags (like Current Designs Pica Boo 
Bag), I'd value your opinion. What works best that is high quality, 
attractive, and easy to use?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

Tom
