Bargain storage bottles from Mailspeed
Bargain storage bottles from Mailspeed
I think they may have got the price wrong-these are 4 times the price everywhere else.
Grab 'em while it's hot etc...

Right or wrong price, what use is 'splash proof' on a RIB! 
Pelican Protector cases, they are the way forward.

Those prices are pretty good.
Can't realistically attach them to an A-frame though...

And a selection of O-ring cords can be found here...

Just choose a suitable diameter, grab your self a tube of superglue to fix the ends of the cord together and Bob's your mothers brother
