Do drybags float?
Yes, provided you leave some air inside the bag when you roll it up and don’t fill your bag with lead then your bag will float. This is due to the gear inside your bag being lighter than the volume of water. Thank you water dynamics! So if our bag happens to fall into the water then it will bob right back up to the top allowing for easy retrieval.
