Product Description

Price is for two bags

Each Trak kayak requires a front and rear bag - they are the same size.

Expedition-Grade Gear Floatation Bags 40L (Set of 2 ~ Twin Lakes)

A basic element of seamanship is keeping the water out. In a skin-on-frame kayak design, this is best achieved with floatation bags. We combined the concept of the twin lakes floatation bags and gear storage dry bags for a simple, elegant and multi-functional solution.

Original skin-on-frame builders used seal skin bladders. This approach has been modernised by building the uniquely shaped multi-purpose bags to Trak's ROAM series elements, such as the material and the Tizip® closure making them durable and functional. These bags were designed to enable a modular approach to expedition gear storage and increase your options for strategic packing. The bags are made of a thicker, stronger material than our standard gear floatation bags and can be counted on to keep your gear dry and your kayak afloat, thanks to their Tizip® impermeable zippers and the roll down closures.


While this unique set of twin bags are designed for the TRAK kayak, it is also perfect for any of your kayaks that lack bulkheads. In this 80 litre bag set we honour the Twin Lakes of Alaska (60°38′20″N153°51′47″W) and spirit of the expedition. This set of lakes is remote and unpopulated. It was the retirement place of naturalist Richard Proenneke. Proenneke says he turned his back on tedious 50-hour work weeks and moved to Alaska "to do a thing to completion".
