Waterproof Storage Bag Option For A Trailer Hauling An Old Town 106 Sportsman Kayak
Question:
When backing the trailer in to the water and submerging it to unload your kayak in the water, is this storage box waterproof or leak proof inside? Is it sealed when closed to keep water out? I like the idea of storing my gear for my Old Town 106 Sportsman powered by MK in the box, but cant have it getting wet every time after submerging the trailer. Thanks.

I took a look at the Storage Trunk for Malone MicroSport and XtraLight Trailers # MPG481 that you mentioned, and it turns out that this trunk is actually not waterproof, however I do have another alternative.
Instead, take a look at the:
- Rightline Gear 4x4 Duffel Bag # RL100J87-B.
This bag IS waterproof, features a bit more storage space at 4.1 cubic feet, and measures 30" long, 14-3/4" wide and 16-1/2" tall.
