Box or bag for gear

[toddster541]

Hmm... I've got a couple of those mesh gear backpacks, but they were sold as kite gear bags or inflatable SUP bags. Same thing, though.
The problem with all of these gear bags is that there just isn't room for them on a small boat. Even on a larger boat, ethics dictate trying to keep as small a footprint as possible.
For my own gear on my own boat, I can just dedicate a locker to dive gear. With four divers on board - strap your assembled rig into the tank rack with mask and fins bungeed on. Weight belts in the bilge. Suits all stuffed into the assigned locker or hanging rod. Keep spare parts and such in your personal kit in your bunk.
At home... well, I've got a walk-in closet in the garage just for SCUBA and camping gear. Somehow, the gear always expands to fill the available space.

That is a good point I think...well a simple mesh will be fine I guess

Anyway there is a cheap backpack mesh that might be worth a try

I got this box https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00V87CQYM/ref=twister_B078W47YRP?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 but paid a lot less for it. Maybe $40?

It will never see a boat, too massive. But it keeps the car dry when I need to haul wet gear. The bag fits right in. And it is a good storage at home (after everything is properly dried out).

I actually use milk crates I bought from here for the small stuff neatly organized (clips, masks, computer, lights....) (Their shipping is too much) and akona mesh bag for fins, (Their shipping is too much) wetsuit. Yes its wet but before putting in car, I let it dry a bit.

Well, as a crate they suggested me this one which is used to harvest grapes in the vineyards

Do you think this backpack or a similar one is good also for scuba?
Attack Backpack
Mostly they are used for spearfishing and freediving. Anyway it should be big enough to contain the BCD and the rest

Eventually I bought this one. Very good I am very happy of the purchase. Mares bags are very nice I also have the regs bag. Good quality, strong, robust, the shoulder straps are comfortable and fit well

The big STANLEY roller boxes hold a lot of gear and are popular here in so calif. Plus you can sit on it and gear up.
I use a HUSKEY low pro roller box works well for me. plus doubles as a traveling check baggage. A long time favorite of mine has been the Akona roller bag, comes with a telescoping handle, rollers, back pack type shoulder straps.
Good Divin,

I have a Oceanic Mesh Backpack. It is light in weight and very durable.
