Highwater Duffel Bag

Arguably best known for its inflatable paddle boards, kayaks, floats, and floating chairs, BOTE continues to impress by expanding its lineup. While searching for a waterproof bag that can stow easily under the seat of my pontoon, I discovered the Highwater Duffel from BOTE. I’ve been a big fan of this manufacturer for years and have tested several of its products, but I wasn’t aware that BOTE was now making a full lineup of waterproof bags. From slingpacks to backpacks, BOTE has it all.

The Highwater Duffel was precisely what I was looking for, with a fully waterproof design. It’s durable and made to protect your belongings on any adventure. Its spacious 39L (10-gallon) interior, complete with a mesh organizer pocket, offers ample storage for your gear. Comfortable carrying options, including side handles, a removable shoulder strap, and a top handle, make it easy to transport.

It’s available in five different colors, including Seafoam, and retails for $279.

Because it’s 100 percent waterproof, it’s perfect for boating. The submersible duffel features 100 percent nylon seam-welded construction, a double-sided TPU coating, and a fully waterproof TZIP main zipper to protect all your belongings from the outside world.

The spacious interior also features a side mesh organizer pocket to keep your smaller items separate and easy to locate. Exterior pocketing includes a convenient non-waterproof stretch stash pocket for additional storage. For easy hauling, this bag offers two side grab handles, a removable padded shoulder strap, and a top handle for horizontal carrying. To round things out, the Duffel has a 3D embossed, compression-molded bottom panel for structure and protection.
