good god there are SO many sub-forums... this is the most generic sub-forum for my general question that i assume divers would have the most knowledge on...
i work in the gulf of mexico on a boat several times a year, and i wanted to buy a good dry bag to keep my laptop in case of an emergency that requires me to evacuate into the water. i don't imagine i'll need to "dive" per-se, nor will i be jumping into the water with the laptop on me (i'll probably throw it overboard first, hopefully into a raft, can never really predict emergency situations)...
anyway, i'd like to buy a bag that can go underwater 2-3 feet and still stay dry inside. i found one amazon with good ratings, but it doesn't talk about whether it can go underwater or not, and many of its buyers have reviewed that the ziploc style zipper is very questionable for keeping out water. can someone recommend a good brand for such a bag?
i have seen dry bags at sporting goods/camping stores where the top is folded over a few times, but have not used it and would like some diver input since y'all are like fish.
