Watershed Chattooga Dry Duffel

The Chattooga is fully submersible. It features an airtight ZipDry® seal that prevents water intrusion even if the bag is completely submerged during a river crossing or accidental drop.

Unlike roll-top bags that rely on folding, the ZipDry® seal functions like a heavy-duty freezer bag, creating an airtight, watertight barrier. It is generally more secure against water ingress and easier to access since you don't have to unroll the top to get your gear.

With a 22-liter capacity and a wide-mouth opening, the Chattooga is well-suited for a camera body and a couple of lenses. However, it does not include internal padding, so you should use a dedicated camera insert or protective wrap to keep your equipment safe.

Yes, the bag is equipped with six reinforced lashing points. These allow you to securely strap the duffel to a boat frame, rack, or other gear using cam straps or carabiners.

The polyurethane-coated nylon is highly durable and UV-resistant. To keep it in top shape, simply rinse it with fresh water after saltwater or muddy use and ensure the ZipDry® seal is free of grit or debris before closing.

The Chattooga is designed primarily as a gear hauler rather than a hiking pack. It features padded grab handles for easy transport, but it lacks shoulder straps, so it is best suited for short carries from a vehicle to a boat or campsite.
