EQUIPMENT AND CLOTHING LIST 

To keep your clothing and equipment dry and free of salt, you will need to fit everything into waterproof dry bags or plastic
cases. These are available at most paddling stores. Cascade Designs make a few lines of dry bags. We recommend either
the clear See bags or colored Baja bags. Size 20 is the largest that will fit into the kayak’s hatches. A few smaller ones are
better than one large one. Pelican Products produce a fine line of waterproof cases for cameras, binoculars, sunglasses etc.
