But I don't find them practical in a kayak, especially those larger than 1 liter (quarter of a gallon). I'm keeping my repair kit in a small plastic jar after honey, and instant cacao powder (a.k.a. hot chocolate) in the similar jar after honey (0.5 kg). Everything else goes into drybags (with separate items, like soup packets, different dryfoods etc, additionally in ziplocks or clear grocery bags). *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
