OverBoard Pro-Vis Waterproof BackPack 30L
www.heinnie.com
Peter Tranter

You will be seen with this hi-visibility,
quality backpack and whilst not always
the deal clincher when using whilst
paddling, it is a huge bonus for when
biking etc.You have to be seen
particularly in these coming winter
months.
It’s rated at class 3, which means it can be
temporarily submerged without the contents
getting wet and that works perfectly fine.
basically you chuck your stuff in, roll the top
down, clip it up and off you go.
So it’s an all-rounder really, perfect for a variety
of uses and not paddler specific but a great
addition for when you do go paddling due to
that class rating and the very fact that is
obviously splash proof etc.
One nice big compartment does the job of
storage and there is a smaller zipped inside
pocket for the smaller items. It’s very

comfortable to wear too. There’s also a D ring
and attachments loops for additional lighting
etc plus two handy mesh side pockets for quick
to grab items.
Overall, a quality backpack, ideal for keeping
your camera, phone, spare set of dry clothes
and wallet etc dry while kayaking or
paddleboarding.
