Description & Features
River Station Mesh Thwart Bag is built for boaters who want fast access and breathable storage on the river. Combining rugged Cordura with ventilated Phifertex mesh, this bag keeps your gear secure while allowing water to drain and airflow to dry items quickly. It’s a practical solution for everyday river essentials that don’t need full waterproof protection.
The large main compartment opens wide with a heavy-duty #10 YKK zipper, making it easy to load and grab gear on the fly. A spacious external stash pocket keeps smaller items like carabiners, sunscreen, and tools within reach. The integrated cam strap system mounts directly to your thwart, so your gear stays secure without extra rigging—and you can access it anytime without unstrapping.
Off the water, the bag converts into a comfortable backpack with padded shoulder straps and back panel. It’s a versatile setup designed for guides and boaters who move between river and shore.
