They look good. For those of us (me) too mean to actually buy a storage drum, I'd recommend paying a visit to a local swimming pool and scrounging one of their old Dry Chlorine/Calcium Hypochlorite/HTH drums - they're about 40L, have handles and a screw on watertight lid. Strong enough to stand on, sit on, etc.

Now that's a good start something for nothing

That boot-bag looks a great idea for lashing to the deck of a rib for an overnight-er trip. Good find.!
