Hi
just an idea I thought I’d share to see if anyone had tried this out….
instead of fitting an airtight zipper, I was thinking of installing an opening either on the side or a seam of the packraft, with a tube of fabric (basically two rectangles sealed to each other on two opposite sides to form a tube, then seal one open end of the tube to the packraft, and the other end left open). The tube could then be rolled up and secured with a clip or velcrose, in the same way that waterproof bags with rolltop enclosures work. This would be cheaper, possibly lighter, and maintenance free, compared to an airtight zipper.
Just an idea at the moment. I’ll give an update if I can get something to work, but just wondering what your thoughts were?
Jamie.
