Cressi Gorilla Bag

Anyone use this bag? I like the idea of packing wet salty gear in a waterproof bag, as my car trunk latch has showed signs of corrosion.

Looks like a good bag. Though I know for a fact it would be a terrible decission for me. I'd leave my gear in there for a couple of days and never get the smell out

It would be nicer if they added compression straps.

IMO, Gear bags need to breath. If you want to keep your trunk dry, drop in one of these.

I bought the bag.

1. It's huge. I can fit all my dive gear (including 1 AL80) plus freedive fins with room to spare.

2. It is completely waterproof. Once home from a dive, I fill it up with water, add some Salt-Away, and let my gear soak.

3. Drain with plug on bag comes in handy when emptying water from bag.

4. Bag seems well contructed. Should last a long time, but we shall see.

I am wondering if the PVC material (a glossy vinyl-like finish) that the bag is made of will hold up well to abrasion.
